Not yet clear  ?

Please read my query and give really good reply 

As far as I understand the provisions of capital gains,

Land and building are to be assessed separately.

In that case, Land will be STCA or LTCA as per period of holding

Building being depreciable asset, its STCA

 

STCG @ slab rates i.e 30%

LTCG @ 20% (10% rate benefit without indexation not available to Land & Building)

Wait for other seniors to guide you on deduction part of your query

Slump sales as per section 50B means

Sale of an entire undertaking (including all assets & liabilities) 

Question as to whether your client has only MIDC leasehold plot along with factory building and not having any other assets and liabilities ?

If Yes

It falls under 50B

Accordingly

Based on period of holding it is chargeable as(LTCG/STCG) without Indexation benefit -36 months

Capital Gain = Sale consideration- Net worth of the company

Net worth= All assets- all liabilities

All assets= WDV of depreciable assets + Book value of other assets

If No

land and building are to be assessed separately.

In that case, Land will be STCA or LTCA as per period of holding Building being depreciable asset, its STCA   STCG @ slab rates i.e 30% LTCG @ 20% (10% rate benefit without indexation not available to Land & Building).
