Capital Gains

This query is : Resolved 

05 August 2008 I had bought a under construction in mumbai in July 2004 (Registration / agreement date)and fully paid to the builder.
The possession however was taken in the month of Mar 2006 after recieving the possession letter from the builder. I currently stay in the same house.
I plan to sell this house now (Aug 2008) and invest the entire net proceeds into buying another house and wish to move there.
Need to know
1) Whether I would fall under the capital gains taxation or not?
2) Is the buying /selling date from the date of registration (agreement) or from the date of possession?
Thanks and Regards,
Gagan Tandon
