20 September 2016 Rather than tax saving, it is a question of proving 10 Cr as improvement, against a cost of 2 Cr, which please note.
It is bit difficult to prove the same to be IMPROVEMENT. If it is on one time basis, the income tax department is likely to treat it as "adventure in the nature of trade". If it is on regular basis, then LTCG is out of question.
