18 July 2010 House purchased in 1992 for say 5lacs (consisting of land and built up ground floor).
The building was demolished by the owner in FY 09-10 and 3 flats were built, of which 1 flat was sold for say 25lacs in FY 09-10 and 2 flats retained by owner.
Whether capital gains to be computed separately for land/building? Sale deed does not bifurcate proportionate cost of land an cost of construction.
Whether gain/loss will be ST/LT.

19 July 2010 dear shashank, before deciding whether this is short term or long term , we need to trace out the nature of the transaction, when any property development made and sold further with an intention of profit that shall be considered as commercial interest or business income.
we can see any agreements entered between the seller and buyer apart from sale deed,intention mentioned in the sale agreement plays an vital role in deciding the nature of the transaction.
