Dear Mr. Rajinder Kapoor Ji
You can take the actual purchase price of the property in 1976 as the cost of the Capital asset as on 01/04/2001and then indexed accordingly to calculate capital gain.
Also, you can take Fair Market Value as on 01/04/2001 as the cost of Capital assets for purpose of Calculating capital gain. This required help of a registered valuer.
Advice: As per Income Tax Act, 1961, if the property is purchased before 01/04/2001, the Cost of Asset will be Original cost of Acquisition or Fair Market Value of 01/04/2001 at the option of assessee. After deciding Cost of Asset Index of 2001-02 will be taken for indexation purpose.
