Quick Summary
You have to pay LTCG @ 20% by taking indexation benefit. You can avoid such ltcg if you have invested in approved bonds u/s 54EC
Apply indexation on cost of acquisition and deduct it from sale value 23 lacs . The difference is long term capital gain.
You can invest into capital gain bonds under 54EC to the tune of long term capital gain.

5.1 lkh multiply by 280 devided by 100
