    *Correct option - A* The land was held from 5th July 2012 to 6th August 2017 = 60 months This is above 24 months, which means the Gain is a Long term Capital Gain, and it needs indexation. The building was held from 8th October 2015 to 6th August 2017 = less than 24 months This means the Gain is a Short term Capital Gain, and it does not need indexation. LAND: Cost of Acquisition (COA) = Cost x (CII of AY 2017-18) / (CII of AY 2012-13)  Cost of Acquisition (COA) = 70,00,000 x 272 / 200 = 95,20,000 Sale Price = 1,50,00,000 LTCG = 1,50,00,000 - 95,20,000 LTCG = 54,80,000 BUILDING Cost = 50,00,000 Sale Price = 60,00,000 STCG = 60,00,000 - 50,00,000 STCG = 10,00,000 Capital gain on sale of house = 54,80,000 + 10,00,000 = 64,80,000
