Take circle rate of the property from Sub-registrar office, as on 01.04.2001, as Cost of Acquisition.

Index it to the year of sale that will be indexed cost of the whole property.

Divide it with your share to get your cost.

In respect of inherited property, the cost of the property has to be taken as cost to the previous owner. if the previous owner has also received by way of inheritance, again cost to previous owner. if the year of purchase by your great grandfather is before 01/04/2001, then take stamp duty value adopted by SRO as on 01/04/2001. if the purchase by your ggf is after 01/04/2001, take purchase consideration as cost of acquisition. you can also avail INDEXATION on improvements, if any, to compute the capital gains tax
If you cant know at what cost was the property purchased then take fair market value
