27 December 2012 All charges which are incurred to the purchases of asset(i.e land) shall be added to cost of acquisition as well as all charges which are incurred to the sale of asset(i.e land for your case) shall be deducted from sale consideration. As well as if any development charges incurred at the time of purchase or after some time of purchase or before to sale also consider as charges and shall be deduct from sale consideration to decide and compute capital gain.
