We, I (myself & my two sisters) have inherited a 10.00 bigha plot of a land from my father during the year 1985, which was purchased by my father for Rs. 1,000/-per bigha only long ago.
Total cost by father 10,000

We had to incur various expenses like earth filling, road construction etc. etc. on each
plot @ Rs. 50,000/- per plot.
Total Expenditure 500,000



Now the said land is converted in 10 nos.plot of 1.00 bigha each and is going to be
sold to various persons @ Rs.2.00 lac per bigha each.
Total sale price 2,000,000


Hence, Sale proceed 2,000,000
Less: Cost & Expenses 510,000

Long Term Capital Gain 1,490,000


Sir, whether the above calculation is correct ? If correct, what are the various provisions to minimize the tax on LTCG ?

16 March 2017 Above calculation is not correct. for actual calculation you have to tell me when your plot was purchased and dates on which expenditures of Rs. 500000 were incurred
