Quick Summary
This discussion explains how to calculate capital gains tax on unlisted shares purchased in 1997-98. It clarifies that you can use either the original purchase cost or the fair market value as of April 1, 2001, whichever is higher, to determine the cost base. The example demonstrates calculating the long-term capital gain based on these rules.

You are free to choose COA as on date 01.04.2001 or actual cost, if its higher...

Here LTCG can be 500* 50  === Rs. 25,000/-
