Reply- As Indexed cost of acquisition is considered while calculating Capital Gains on transfer of Long Term Capital Asset, your capital gain is certainly going to be less than the new house purchased by you. You have to claim Exemption U/s 54 and nothing will be taxable.

Reply- You have to pay tax on the LTCG
which was claimed as exempt, in case you sale it within 3 years of its purchase.
Suppose your Long Term Capital Gain Exemption was Rs 15.00 lac , you have to pay tax @ 20 +3% E. Cess.

Reply- It is not advisable to transfer Residential Houses to celebrate the job transfers. In future , you may be again transferred to this lovely city. Please maintain it up to 3 years at least.

In spite of purchasing a house every time discuss with your Company for HRA, Rent Free House etc.
