Query on capital gain on sale of building

Mr A has purachased 1000 sq yards of land in the yaer 1980 for Rs 7500,he incurred exepnditure of Rs 100000 during the year 2000. He entered into  an agreement in the year 2011 with the developer wherein he transfers 450 sq yards of land to the developer and the developer in turn constructs a building on the remaining share of the land of Mr A(550 sq yards) as a sale consideration for the foregone part of the land(450 sq yards).Mr A now sells the buidling in the year 2012 January. what will be his tax treatment?

My opinion is...............

Here by observing the transaction,its an exchange of asset which is also a transfer attracting capital gains.So,FMV of new building shall be taken as consideration and compute capital gains as usual for this transanction.

For newly acquired building,compute capital gains by taking above FMV as cost of acquition subject to Section 54 exemption if conditions satisfied.
