Capital Gains on Redeveloped Residential Flat

My father purchased a residential flat in 1983. It was 650 sq.ft. for Rs.2L

Redeveloped started in 2012 and completed in. 2015. Flat became 940 sq.ft. after redevelopment. 

We want to sell our redeveloped flat for 250L in FY 2021-22. Please tell us how the capital gains tax will arise and how to claim exemption u/s 54. Thank you.

Quick Summary
This discussion addresses capital gains tax implications for a residential flat that was redeveloped between 2012 and 2015. The owner plans to sell the expanded flat for Rs. 250 Lakhs in FY 2021-22 and seeks guidance on calculating capital gains and claiming exemption under Section 54. Key advice includes using the 2015 circle rate as the Cost of Acquisition (COA) for calculating Long Term Capital Gains (LTCG) and confirming eligibility for Section 54 exemption. Information on obtaining the 2015 circle rate from the sub-registrar's office or builder agreements is also provided.

Get the circle rate of the flat as on 2015. that will be your COA.

LTCG will be sell price less indexed COA.

Yes, you can get exemption u/s. 54, if the conditions are satisfied under the section.

Thank you so much sir. So I don't need the 2001 value. 2015 value is the COA. Great. 

Could you also tell me sir where can I get that circle value of 2015 from?

That process was supposed to be linked when the new flat was acquired in 2015.

Either Sub-registrar office of the region or the agreement copies of the builder with the other buyers of the building registered in 2015.
