15 May 2010 company hold it as stock in trade till now.company can sell it at the most 24 lakhs

20 November 2010 If the company is a real estate/ property developers then, the purchase of land would be treated as Inventory.
Otherwise it is a capital asset.

If the land is selling now, which was purchased 4 years ago, shall be treated as Long term capital gains.

Sale consideration less Indexed cost of Acquisition.
