I have a query regarding LTCG filing under new tax regime for F.Y. 2026-27. I purchased a property in February 2012. I will be selling this property in May 2026. I want to understand that if I file ITR for F.Y. 2026-27 under new regime, will I be able to consider COST of ACQUISATION WITH INDEXTION and pay LTCG under old rule of 20%?

• Under new regime → 12.5% without indexation • Under old regime → 20% with indexation • For property bought in 2012 → indexation benefit is significant • Best strategy: Opt old regime + claim indexation (lower tax)
