Quick Summary
This discussion clarifies how to report long-term capital gains (LTCG) from property sales in ITR-2 for Assessment Year 2024-25. It explains that even with a calculated LTCG of 10 Lakhs, you can claim an exemption under Section 54 of the IT Act if you purchased a new property within the specified time frame. ITR-2 is confirmed as the appropriate tax form for individuals reporting such gains, provided all sale details and claimed exemptions are accurately included.

For how many years you hold the property, before selling in Nov. 2023?

About 22 years

In that case the indexed COA would be much much higher.

Even if there be LTCG of Rs. 10L after indexed COA reduced from sell price, you can claim exemption u/s. 54 IT act, while filing ITR 2 of AY 2024-25, as you have purchased new HP within specified time period as per the section.

Fill the details in column for 'exemption u/s. 54'
