Long Term Capital Gain Tax applicable for SRA Flat

I own a flat that used to be a slum which I bought in the 90s. It was redeveloped as part of SRA in 2005. I am now planning to sell it. My question is will my cost be calculated as per inflation-adjusted ready reckoner rate of 2001 or will it be valued as being free and therefore my long-term capital gain tax be calculated at the entire sale amount being considered as my profit?

Quick Summary
This discussion addresses the calculation of Long Term Capital Gains Tax (LTCG) for an SRA (Slum Rehabilitation Authority) flat purchased in the 1990s and redeveloped in 2005. The key question is whether the cost basis for tax purposes should be the inflation-adjusted ready reckoner rate from 2001 or if the entire sale amount will be considered profit. The consensus leans towards using the fair market value as of 01.04.2001, subject to conditions, and applying the indexed cost of acquisition.

Use Fair Market value as on 01.04.2001.
FAIR MARKET VALUE OF THE FLAT IN THE YEAR 2005. Obviously fair market value as on 1.4.2001 can be taken subject to certain conditions.
Indexed cost of accquistion has to be taken into consideration.
