you will need to report this capital gain Rs.8 lakhs in your income tax return (ITR) under "Capital Gains". Since you held the house for more than 2 years (2017 to 2024), this is a long term capital gain. 

Long-term capital gain on a house property is taxable at 20% with indexation benefit. 

Indexation benefit:-

You can reduce the taxable gain by applying indexation (adjusting purchase price for inflation). 

Cost inflation Index for 2017-2018 =  272

Cost Inflation Index for 2024-2025 =  348

Indexed Purchase Price =  Rs.67Lakhs X (348/272) = Rs.85.73 lakhs

Capital Gain (with indexation) = 75 lakhs - 85.73 Lakhs = Rs.10.73 lakhs (loss)

Since there is a loss after indexation, there is no capital gain tax liability.

Buying a new house: - If you buy a new house this year, you will not have capital gain tax liability from this sale because hou have  incurred a loss after indexation.  

Thank you So much sir for detailed advice.

Thanks a lot
