Quick Summary
This discussion clarifies how to calculate capital gains tax when an inherited property is sold. Even though the property was registered in the father's name, the sale proceeds are divided equally among the three sons, who are the legal heirs. The capital gains tax liability falls on the sons, with the cost of acquisition being that of the deceased father and subject to indexation.

Individual share should be calculated on the basis of sales consideration as the son's are the legal heirs by calculating the purchase value of the property or the fair market value of the property by indexation
The shares of sons are determinate and hence it will be one third to each. cost of acquisition will be as that of his father.
Liability of father is paid by legal heirs up to the income received from their father. so here liability for taxability is is in the hands of sons.
calculate capital gain as per the provisions and the tax liability will be paid by their sons.
