Quick Summary
If you've purchased a flat using a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) where the agreement date differs from the purchase date, you'll likely be subject to Long Term Capital Gains (LTCG) tax. The cost of acquisition for tax purposes should be based on the date of the agreement. This agreement date is also what you should use when calculating indexation for your LTCG tax.

If the date of agreement for the flat purchase and the date of the actual purchase are different, the cost of acquisition should be determined based on the agreement date. LTCG will be applicable.

LTCG applicable in your case. Use date of agreement for calculation of indexation.
