Quick Summary
When selling a property, the date of registry is typically used for capital gains tax calculations. However, if you have documentation like a purchase agreement or payment receipts from an earlier date (2010 in this case), you might be able to use that year as your purchase date. This could potentially change your tax liability from short-term to long-term capital gains.

What documents you have from 2010?

e.g. purchase agreement, possession letter. allotment letter, payment receipts etc...
 

Don't have any documents just payment done from bank

Even if you manage to get Allotment letter dated year 2010, you will be able to justify it for LTCG, otherwise it will be STCG.

Ok thanks if we receive payment receipt then what will be treatment

Payment receipt can be issued as advance also.

Use 2010 as the purchase year.

Registry deed whic date is considered.
