Stcg query

Please answer these:

(a) On sale of a house withing 2 years, while calculating STCG, indexation is allowed or not?

(b) When a house is sold in 2 years and when the CPand SP is same i.e. there is no CG, while reporting it in ITR2, can one show expences ccured while in transfer, if yes, I guess STCG will go negative so we can carry it forward. 1% TDS has been done on this transaction so willthis be refunded?
