Quick Summary
This discussion provides guidance on how to correctly report a long-term capital gain from the sale of a land plot in your Income Tax Return (ITR). It addresses how to calculate the gain by considering the sale price, original purchase price, and crucially, how to include construction costs as part of the 'cost of improvement' when filing.

It will come under cost of improvement.

In the cost of improvement

The cost of improvement is seperate.

Reporting LTCG on sale of a plot in ITR-2:
• Schedule CG → Long-term capital gains → "From sale of land or building": enter sale consideration (or SDV if higher, per 50C), cost of acquisition (with indexation if eligible), cost of improvement, transfer expenses. The buyer's details (name, PAN, address) and property address are mandatory.
• For a Rs 8.8 lakh sale, if the buyer deducted TDS (only if consideration is Rs 50 lakh or more), claim it.
• Choose the tax option (for sales after 23 July 2024, residents: the lower of 12.5% and 20% with indexation; the utility computes).
• Exemptions in the "Deductions" section of Schedule CG (54, 54F, 54EC).
