Irrelevant

@ Sabyasachi what is irrelevant ?

Ideally Indira is the owner...coming to who pays capital gain( there is no gain after indexation) so no capital gain tax.
@ Rahul.....
1. it's legitimate transaction... Father to daughter, relative..
2. Indira Pay LTCG Tax, if any because it's proud daughter, having legal and beneficial right on property.
