The plot was purchased in 1990.   at cost Rs. 60,000/- The construction cost was appx. 10.00 Lacs. What is best procedure to compute minimum income tax to be paid. And let me advise the techniques also to save Income Tax.

            Sale consideration                      =                20,00,000

less : indexed cost of plot                        =               ( 2,08,351)

less : indexed cost of Construction           =               (14,83,568)


 TAXABLE LONG TERM CAPITAL GAIN   =               3,08,081


IF U WANT TO SAVE  TAX , INVEST MONEY IN CONSTRUCTION OR PURCHASE OF RESIDENTIAL PROPERTY WITHIN 3 YEARS FROM DATE OF SALE.
