I and my brother's wife have exchanged our plots through registered exchange deed paying proper stamp duty which we purchased 10 years ago. The circle value for stamp purpose is almost same for both plots. are we both liable for Long term capital gain tax?

If it was not gifted to each other then as per capital gain provisions extinguishment of rights also amounts to transfer and accordingly shall be taxable.
FMV of the assets shall be taken as full value of considrataion.
