From the day you have received in gift deed.. acquisition cost as per gift deed
Sale of gifted property is sale value less cost of acquisition.
Logically, the tax paid to receive that gift should also be treated as cost of acquisition. Not sure of this but logically it should be. Some reading required in this direction.

Ofcourse, Cost of acquisition will be cost to the previous owner and the period of holding will be period held by previous owner plus donee.

Raj sir, of tax is paid in such gift received... then ideally date of acquisition should be from the date of gift.

please clarify

In case of property received as gift, the period of holding is reckoned from the date of its purchase by the acquirer, other than by way of gift. If the property has been originally acquired by non-relative, the period of holding will be reckoned from such purchase date.

Cost of acquisition is the cost to the previous owner.

No Dear...

 

If received as gift then it's not calculated from date of gift (or gift deed). 

The calculation required from date of previous valued (like donor's purchased date).

 

Means if the said property given as sale (not as gift) then property value calculated with acquisition. After this the value increased at the time of sale (so it's gifted and calculation required)
