Check whether its rural or urban land, and decide.

If its rural agricultural land than no tax as it is not a capital asset

Sir

It is Rural Area ( Which 25 Km fare from Vadodara City)

Check as per income tax criiteria as follows:

Definition of Rural Area – from AY 2014-15 – Any area which is outside the jurisdiction of a municipality or cantonment board having a population of 10,000 or more is considered Rural Area, if it does not fall within distance(to be measured aerially) given below – (population is as per the last census)

2kms from local limit of municipality or cantonment board If the population of the municipality/cantonment board is more than 10,000 but not more than 1lakh
6kms from local limit of municipality or cantonment board If the population of the municipality/cantonment board is more than 1lakh but not more than 10 lakh
8kms from local limit of municipality or cantonment board If the population of the municipality/cantonment board is more than 10lakh

 

If its rural agricultural land as per above criteria, then the gain is totally tax-free.
