Dear Mr Shah
You will get indexation benefit on the cost you have incurred that is purchase cost and expenditure incurred. In your case it is 1627000. Hence your capital gain is 2670000 which is taxable at the rate of 20%. You can save this tax by investing in other residential property or in NHAI bonds for which seperate time limit has been specified
