Capital Gains from sale of property

I bought a flat for 44L in 2012. 

Now I am planning to sell it for 90L in 2020.

1) Within what period of the sale, I need to invest in another property so that I dont have to pay capital gain tax?

2) Also, How to calculate the tax liability for this sale?

Quick Summary
This discussion addresses capital gains tax implications when selling a property. It clarifies the crucial timelines for reinvesting sale proceeds into a new property to potentially avoid capital gains tax, specifying purchase deadlines before or after the sale, and construction deadlines. The advice also touches upon how to calculate the tax liability, noting that net long-term capital gains are taxed at 20%, with the remainder of your gross total income taxed at your applicable slab rates.

Need to buy in 2yrs or construct it within 3 yrs from date of transfer.
You can either purchase 1yr before sale or 2 yrs/3yrs after sale, purchase or construct respectively...

net LTCG will be taxable @ 20% n rest of your GTI(net of LTCG) shall be taxable @ applicable slab rates.

Hope this helps.:-)
