How Long term Capital Gains is calculated in the case of Long term Capital Assets using Cost Inflation Index ?
Long term capital gain arising on account of transfer of long-term capital asset will be computed as follows:
Particulars | Rs. |
Full value of consideration (i.e., Sales consideration of asset) | XXXXX |
Less: Expenditure incurred wholly and exclusively in connection with transfer of capital asset (E.g., brokerage, commission, etc.) | (XXXXX) |
Net sale consideration | XXXXX |
Less: Indexed cost of acquisition (*) | (XXXXX) |
Less: Indexed cost of improvement, if any (*) | (XXXXX) |
Long-Term Capital Gain | XXXXX |
(*) Cost of acquisition is the purchase price of the capital asset and cost of improvement which includes all expenditure of a capital nature incurred in making any additions or alterations to the capital asset by the assesse after it became his property. Indexation is a process by which the cost of acquisition/improvement is adjusted against inflationary rise in the value of asset. For this purpose, Central Government has notified cost inflation index for different years. The benefit of indexation is available only to long-term capital assets. For computation of indexed cost of acquisition/indexed cost of improvement, following factors are to be considered:
- Year of acquisition/improvement
- Year of transfer
- Cost inflation index of the year of acquisition/improvement
- Cost inflation index of the year of transfer
How Indexed cost of acquisition is computed ?
Indexed cost of acquisition is computed with the help of following formula :
Cost of acquisition × Cost inflation index of the year of transfer of capital asset
Cost inflation index of the year of acquisition
How Indexed cost of improvement is computed ?
Indexed cost of improvement is computed with the help of following formula :
Cost of improvement × Cost inflation index of the year of transfer of capital asset
Cost inflation index of the year of improvement
