the answer is as follows
Full Value of consideration: 600000
(-) WDV as on 1.4.15: 245650
Therefore Short Term Cap Gains 354350

Working Note
Original Cost of Acquiring 400000
-Depre for AY 13-14 @ 15% 60000
-Depre for AY 14-15 @ 15%
51000
-Depre for AY 15-16 @ 43350
Therefore WDV on 1.4.15 : 245650
and in question Aug 15 means August 2015 and not 15th Aug 2012

since asset was procured on 01.05.2012 therefore dep for 12-13 for full year be provided
