Quick Summary
This discussion clarifies capital gains tax implications when selling a property acquired via a deed of release. While inheritance itself isn't taxed, selling an inherited property triggers capital gains tax. The tax is calculated on the profit made from the sale, considering the original purchase price and any improvements, indexed to inflation. For long-term gains, the taxable rate is generally 20%.

On inheritance no tax but on sale of gifted property also there is capital gain.
Yes, capital gain doesn't arise when you acquire property by inheritance but capital gain arises when you sold your inherited property.
capital gain arises in the year of transfer.
long capital gains = sale consideration you
received
(-)
indexed cost of acquisition ( i.e
purchase value incurred by your
mother)
(-) indexed cost of improvement
incurred by your mother and
by you till transfer

taxable rate is 20%on such long term capital gains u/s 112
