Quick Summary
This discussion seeks clarification on calculating Long Term Capital Gains (LTCG) for a residential plot. The main query revolves around determining the holding period, specifically whether the date of allotment or the date of registration should be used. It also asks for advice on how to treat expenses like property tax, mutation fees, and demarcation charges as either cost of acquisition or cost of improvement for tax computation purposes.

1) it will be allotment letter
2) property tax not to be added
3) Mutation added to cost
4) Demarcation add to cost
