Dr. Y I Patel,
If sold unlisted shares were a long term capital assets (holding period more than 12 months)in your hands, you can buy 6% LTCG bonds issued by NHAI to get exemption (u/s 54EC) from tax on capital gain.
LTCG bonds should be bought within 6 months from the date of trannsfer (sale in your case) of unlisted shares (in your case) to avail benefit u/s 54EC.
Amount of exemption:
Lower of the following:or
1) The amount of capital gains generated on transfer of capital asset
or
2) The amount of investment
Remember - 6% LCCG bonds issued by NHAI should not be transferred (or converted into money or any loan/advance is taken on the security of those bonds)within three years from the date of their acquisition otherwise capital gains which were not charged to tax would be deemed to be the capital gain in the year of transfer and charged to tax accordingly.
Thanks,

Dr. Y I Patel,
Yes, you can get the benefit of indexation.
I mention it earlier that exemption is lower of the following two.
1) The capital gains generated
2) The amount invested
Yes, you are right you have to pay tax on remaining Rs.10.
Thanks
