can any one tell me whether indexation for cost of improvement has to be calculated for each of the 3 years in question on the above ?

For the land it would be Long-Term Capital gain as it has been Held for more than 3 Years.

For the House the Date of Completion would taken for determining the period of Holding. Since the Date is in FY 2015-16 it will be a short term Capital Gain.

The Sale Proceeds are to be splitted between Land and House Property and respective captial Gains needs to be calculated.
