11 November 2011 If you have held the right share for a period exceeding 12 months, then the share is a long term asset and the benefit of indexation will be available.

The indexed cost of acquisition will be calculated as under:

Cost*CII of the year of transfer/CII of the year of acquisition.

CII = Cost Inflation Index
