I bought 1000 shares of ABC Ltd in 2021 on 2 occasions and weighted avg buy rate of the share is Rs 144. In Dec 22 there was a de-merger of ABC Ltd to form a new entity called XYZ Ltd. Shares of the XYZ Ltd was allotted in the ratio of 1:1 – 1000 shares allotted for XYZ Ltd in Dec22. In Feb23 listing of the XYZ happened and market rate of the XYZ Ltd on listing day was Rs 31/ shr and ABC Ltd was Rs 118/ share. What is the calculation now for the adjusted cost price/ buy rate of shares of ABC Ltd and XYZ Ltd for LTCG calculation purpose in case the shares are sold today?
