Article discusses Meaning of Cost Inflation Index (CII) which is used for Computation of Long Term Capital Gain. Cost Inflation index are Notified by CBDT every year and till date CBDT has notified Cost Inflation Index for the Financial Year 1981-82 to Financial year 2016-17. Cost Inflation index are used for computing indexed cost of acquisition.
What is Cost Inflation Index (CII)?
It is a measure of inflation that finds application in tax law, when computing long-term capital gains on sale of assets. Section 48 of the Income-Tax Act defines the index as what is notified by the Central Government every year, having regard to 75 per cent of average rise in the consumer price index (CPI) for urban non-manual employees for the immediately preceding previous year. Therefore, if we consider that price of a capital asset has risen in tandem with base price rise, then if one want to sell an asset and replace it, the cost allowed even after indexation will be lesser than the price payable for new asset. However, in case of many capital asset the price rise is lesser than market price and in many cases it is higher.
How does Cost Inflation Index (CII) help in capital gains computation? Capital gain, as you know, arises when the net sale consideration of a capital asset is more than the cost. Since “cost of acquisition” is historical, the concept of indexed cost allows the taxpayer to factor in the impact of inflation on cost. Consequently, a lower amount of capital gains gets to be taxed than if historical cost had been considered in the computations.
Formula for computing indexed cost is (Index for the year of sale/ Index in the year of acquisition) x cost.
For example, if a property purchased in 1991-92 for Rs 20 lakh were to be sold in A.Y. 2009 -10 for Rs 80 lakh, indexed cost = (582/199) x 20 = Rs 58.49 lakh. And the long-term capital gains would be Rs 21.51, that is Rs 80 lakh minus Rs 58.49 lakh.
Cost Inflation Index:- Cost inflation index (CII) as notified by Central Government alongwith analysis of the same is as under:

PLEASE HELP TO EVALUATE A RESIDENTIAL BUILDING CONSTRUCTED IN 1981 BY CII OR ANY OTHER METHOD.
Sir,
Please explain how to arrive the construction cost of a residential building constructed in 1981 using Inflation Index (CII) if possible, or Pls explain the valuation method to arrive the cost of construction of such a building.
OFFHAND
The subject Notification seems to be faulty in two respects:
(A) The Index for FY 2016-17 has been fixed much before the year end of Mar 31; which is not in accordance with the basis sec 48 provides.
(B) The base year has been changed from 1981 to 2001, but the old Index for 1981 been left untouched. So much so, property acquired before 1981 , if now sold, will, it appears, be denied the tax benefit on an amount equal to the Index for 1981.
Any scope for a different / better perception on the foregoing observations ?
OFFHAND
The Notification has prescribed the Index for FY 2016-17, prematurely, much before the year end of Mar 31, 2017 itself; unlike , as in the past, much after the end of a previous year. It is unclear, rather questionable, – how then the Index so fixed for FY 2016-17 could be claimed to have been computed strictly as per sec 48 ?

Dear sir: In FY 2012-13, I have sold a house property that was constructed and related costs of construction incurred over 8 years in a distributed manner during 1980-81 to 1989-90. For assessing capital gains tax in this case, is indexation of capital cost of acquisition to be done year-wise for each year’s cost incurred by applying the index factor for that year and summed up over all the years or for the cumulative cost of acquisition in the year of completion of construction by applying the index factor for that one year only ? Thanks in anticipation of your early clarification:

Capital Gains
In the year 1999, I had bought a flat in Bangalore. This was bought on loan thru HDFC. While I paid all the monies (initial and EMI), it was bought in the joint name of my husband and me. As it stands, the flat is free from all loans and is jointly held by us.
Additionally, I have recently inherited 2 floors of a lease hold property (plotted house). Though the property is more than 25 years old, I have only inherited it 6 months ago. This is a 3 floor property and is located in NCR.
Recently, a builder has approached me and offered to rebuild the property after he has acquired a floor (i.e. excluding my 2 floors) from my brother. He is suggesting that we collaborate and rebuild the premises at his cost as per the current bye laws. In lieu of this he has offered me 2 floors and some consideration (vide cheque). Currently, I stay and use both the floors of this property.
My questions are:
a)
If I enter into this deal, will the consideration received by me from the builder attract long term capital gain tax? If yes, how can I save it as I also own a flat in Bangaluru.
b)
If I enter this deal and sell one of the two floors (i.e. retain only one)and then within the next few months buy another residential property equal to the sale price of one floor and cheque consideration, will it attract short term or long term capital gain? If yes, how can I save it as I also own a flat in Bangaluru.
c)
Should I sell my Bangaluru flat, will the consideration received by me from the builder still attract long term capital gain tax? If yes, how can I save it ?
d)
Should I gift/relinquish my Bangaluru flat to my husband, will the consideration received by me from the builder attract long term capital gain tax? If yes, how can I save it ?
In short, what is the best option to save Capital Gain tax while keeping the transaction in cheque? (I also understand that the assessee should not own more than one
residential house other than the residential house in which he
has invested as on the date of transfer…This is bit confusing)
I want a clarification regarding the Indexation benefit applicable for the following securities.
I had bought a structured product ( Secured Redeemable Non convertible debentures) on 29th August 2008. These securities were listed on the BSE. The redemption date was on 29th Nov. 2011. The redemption value was on Par. The interest on the debenture was linked to closing level nifty compared to the opening Nifty.
Can we claim indexation benefits for the interest paid on the debentures ? If not what would be the applicable taxes on the interest ?
Thanks for your response.

I purchased a flat from builder in 10/2/2005 for 23,81,000/- in Bangalore but and as practiced by most builder it was registered at 8,87,056/- at govt value. I have the documents for both.
Now on 15/03/2012 I sold the flat for 45,00,000/- .
I have also purchased another flat and paid around 20,00,000/- as part payment to the builder for the new flat so far. According to sale agreement I will get the flat registered in my name in 2014 which is under construction now. However an agreement of sale is already signed with the builder.
Q1. What should be the Cost of acquisition of my previous flat (the full purchase value or the registered value)
Q2. I did some improvements on the flat and spend around 2,50,000/- but I do not have any receipt of the same can I include it in the cost of improvement.
Q3. As I had sold the flat on 15/03/2012, do I have to declare capital gain in tax return to be filed by 31 July 2012 or next year as I have 6 months time to reinvest in another flat.
Q4. As my new flat will be registered in my name in 2014 which is under construction now, is it a valid property reinvestment which I can show now.

Hi, I bought a flat in Oct 2007 and sold it in June 2012. After purchasing the flat I got some work done but I do not have any papers to show the amount of expense incurred. How to include that expense into my cost for the calculation of CG? Also I am about to get the registry done of another flat which I booked 3 years back. I would be paying the balance to the builder in 1 year time. Is it necessary to deposit the CG proceeds to the CG Account till then?

one of my client has sold his half property in January1981 for Rs.26 lacs and other half was to get constructed at Rs.100/- per sft.by the purchaser.Due to some problem the purchaser did not honour the terms and conditions of the agreement.Again in the year 1992 the property was sold to Z (by the 1st vendor and the 2nd vendor).Due to lower valuation the IT Dept.acquired the property.The acquisition was challanged and pending the acqusition ( acqusition provisions were repealed)the property was sold to another party in the year 2006(by both the vendor) with the understanding of Z.Now my question is what is the value of cost for the 1st vendor.Please note that eventhough the 2nd vendor is a party to the final agreement of 2006 he never became the owner to claim any cost in the computation.

Dear Sir,
I would be grateful if you could provide the answer to my following query
.
a) My grandfather purchased a plot 60 years ago and Constructed a house on it.
b)He died intestate and later after almost 40 years after his death(died in 1965) there was release deed done in favour of one of the children of this person with mutual consent of the rest of the children c). The present owner( in whose name the release deed was made) would like to dispose this plot as per current market rate . For Eg: Say the Total Consideration received would be around 50 lakhs.
d)For Calculation of Indexation how would the Price for Purchase Calculated and at what rate .( If initial purchase price records are not avialable then what will be the price ) Thanks for answering my query
I had purchased a property with small house in 1983 for RS.50,000.
In the year 2006 I demolished the house and built a new house with 2600 square feet plinth area and at a cost of 23 Lakhs. In 2012 I disposed the property for RS.35 Lakhs. I want to know what is the capital gain for this deal.
Many of us have raised important question which is what if the property purchased before 1980 (say ancient property purchased in 1965 at 1000 Rs) how CII will be calculated or benefited at the inflated property selling price in 2012? (say 2012 current cost is 20 lakhs)
@Although few people said that CII prior to 1980 will remain 100 but how true is it? Is there any notification / proof available online? Even If I assume for moment that’s true than the property purchased in 1981 will get highest tax benefit compared to person who has purchased property in 1965 say for 1000 rs? That’s absolutely ridiculous !
I will really appreciate right advice / help
Dear Sir,
First of all thanks for your time.
Question : I purchased a residential plot in 2002. The price per government records / registration price was much lower than the actual price paid to the seller (market value).
If for Tax purposes, I have to go by the Government Rate / Price, I will end up paying more tax than what I actually owe. My question is, which of the two amounts (Government valuation or Market Price) will be considered as “Cost of Acquisition” for Tax calculations?
Thanks in advance for your help.
Best Regards,

This problem is related to long term capital gain .you have not specified the date purchase . I am assuming you have purchased after 31st march 1987 that time cost of index was 150 and index 2010-11 is 711
As per capital gain tax
Sale value consideration 3105000
Less cost of acquistion
711/150 * 277500 = 1315350
Less cost of improvement= Nil ( you have not specified in you query)
Less brokerage and other cost
———
capital gain 1789650
you save tax take the help of sec 54,54EC,54 F
As you have not specified clearly many thing i am unable to give advice

Cost to the previous owner become cost of the assessee .Therefore, cost of index 1981-82 is taken as base index (ie) 100. current index 785 .your capital gain will be as follows
Sale value consideration 2500000
Less cost of indexiation
785/100* 65000 510250
Less cost of improvement Nil ( you have not specified)
Less cost of transfer Nil ( not specified)
———–
Capital gain 1989750

To save tax apply sec 54, 54EC , 54F
Sorry captain
I want to rectify my mistake
according to central govt notification cost of inflation index for the first year in which the asset was held by assessee or the year beginning on April1,1981 , whichever is later
According to the above statement your idex will be 2009 not 1981 year index 100

This is a good article. However, it would have helped if the author had mentioned in the article the likely changes in the provisions, when the Direct Taxes Code is expected to be effective with from 1.4.2012. I request the author to write a fresh article once the DTC provisions are implemented. Thanks.
You will have to ascertain the Fair Market Value as on 01.04.1981. Compare this with the actual cost of acqusition. The higher of the two will be taken to be the cost of acqusition. This cost of acqusition will then be indexed. For example if the sale is made in FY 2011-12 and the Cost of Acqusition as determined above is Rs. 100/- then the indexed cost will be Rs. 100 x 785/100 i.e Rs. 785/-.
Now from the sale value ( example 1000/-) you should reduce the indexed cost of acqusition and any expense reltated to transfer and you will get capital gain of Rs. 215/-

I had purchased a piece of land for Rs 700/- wayback in 1975 and sold it for 5 lakh. How to calculate the idexed value as the basis starts from 1981-82
Since the plot of land was purchased in 1975. You will have to take the valuation for the year 1981-82. Presuming the valuation is 1000/-. The inflated cost of land wii be 1000/100*711 which comes to Rs. 7110/-. The capital Gain will be 5 lakh minus 7110.

Dear Sir,
In the year 2006-07, I bought one flat in 12 lacs. I have sold this flat in december 2010 in 37.5 lacs. I have spent in brokerage (in selling) etc expenses as 1.4 lacs. As per my understanding the capital gain would be Rs 19.66 lacs. I am planning to re-invest Rs 20 lacs in buying a new flat in june 2011. So i should not attract any capital gain tax from above property as I am re-investing more money that capital gain!
Is it correct ?
Hi sunil,
unless we get the date of purchase(allotment), we can’t ascertain whether it is long term/ short term. If long term capital asset(other than a residential property), the gain can be invested in residential house(not necessarily occupied).See section 54F of the income tax act.See also section 54 in the case of residential property

Dear Ruchir
In case of property purchased before 01.04.1981 , the cost of acquisition will be mostly consist of cost of land ie. circle rate of the property on 01.04.1981, such cost will be indexed using cost inflation index as per income tax act.eg if you using circle rate the cost comes to 10000.00 as on 01.04.1981 then as per current inflation index it will be 71100.00.Now you will have to deduct the sale consideration from cost of acquisition to calculate long term capital gain.
for exemption you can purchase bonds, exemption is the amount of capital gain you invest in bonds.
dear sir

what will be my tax liability.
Thanks
Sir,
Can stamp duty and registration fee paid on the sold flat to be part of the cost of the sold property to calcualte capital gain.
Similarly is it possible to add the registration and stamp duty charges of the new flat (purchasing) to calculate the capital gain?
old flat rate = r Stamp+regd fee = s improvement = i
new flat rate = n stamp+regd fee = ns
Can I calculate the capital gain as
(n+ns) – indexed (r+s+i) ?
Thanks in advance
I have purchased a land for 0.7 Lakhs during 1989-90. Stamp duty paid = Rs.15688. Brokerage Commission Paid =Rs 5000.00.

Civil case 2007 to 2010(Court & Lawyer expenses) = Rs 40000.00.
I have sold this property during 2010 -11 for 28 lakhs. Out of which i have paid brokerage commission as Rs.0.56 Lakhs and incidental charges as Rs 5000.00
1. Whether it attracts capital gain tax if so How much i am liable for Capital gain tax during this year?.
2. If capital gain tax to be adjusted, for how much i need to purchase a land during this year?
3. I am a senior Citizen age of 71 years. Is there any concession?

Dear Sir,
Father house constructed in 1985-86 given to younger sister in 2010 and she intends to pays 10 lacs each to mother, brother and another sister in US through a bank loan after registering the property on her name. We all three individually have planned to invest the LTCG (with exemptions) in NHAI for 3 year period which is approx Rs. 3,30729 after deducting the indexed cost of improvement.
1. Does indexed cost of improvement apply to all three of us as two major repairs were undertaken (1989-90 & 2008-09) for 50k and 1.5 lacs respectively?
2. Of the 10 lacs only 3,30,729 is LTCG and do we have to pay income tax for the balance 6,69,271 individually? My mother is not employed, I am self employed and my sister is working in US.
3. Do we also have to pay income tax on the interest earned on the LTCG deposited with NHAI?

what is the cost of inflation factor for the financial year 2010-2011???
Purchased residential plot on 23-March-1981 for Rs Rs 10,000. Sold it for Rs 20,00,000 on 15-June-2010. Please help me with my tax liability.
@Baburaj,
full consideration = 19,80,000
cost of acquisition = 2,970,00 + 40,095 + 22,562 + 27,563 (some components mightcost of improvement = 0
indexed cost of acquisition = 3,87,220*632/447 = 5,47,479
indexed cost of improvement = 0
long term capital gains without exemption = 19,80,000-(5,47,479+0) = 14,32,521
cost of new asset = 15,00,000
14,32,521 < 15,00,000
See <a href="http://law.incometaxindia.gov.in/DitTaxmann/IncomeTaxActs/2009ITActhence net long term capital gains = 0.
I would like to know when will the government release the cost inflation index for F.Y. 2010-2011. I have sold a flat in June 2010 and I want to calculate how much deduction can I get on that flat. When do I need to pay the advance tax or where can I invest?
@Aparna,
You cannot file a revised return beyond one year from the end of the assessment year (or two years from the end of the financial year) except probably in response to a notice from the assessing officer.
Also note that in the absence of any voluntary disclosure of income scheme, if it comes to light that income has been under-reported for two years, this might trigger reassessment for many more years.
Your best bet is probably to report the income from that bank account in line with your conscience!
@Ramesh C
You have to get the cost of acquisition of the property, or get a valuation officer to determine its fair market value as of 1 April 1981. You can use the higher of the two as the cost of acquisition C.
Without this, you might be liable to tax on full 420L/7 assuming zero cost of acquisition!
You could also work out the cost of improvement of the ancestral property if any.
full consideration = 420 L/7
cost of acquisition = C/7
cost of improvement = (? + ? + …)/7
indexed cost of acquisition = C*632/100/7 = C * 6.32/7
indexed cost of improvement = (?*632/? + ?*632/? + …)/7 (depending on year of improvements)
long term capital gains = [420 L – (C*6.32/7+?)]/7
tax = 20% of gains
education cess = 3% of tax
@Pradip Joshi/Pradeep,
Exemption for capital gains tax by investment in new house applies for short term capital gains only in case of compulsory acquisition of industrial undertakings Profit on sale of property used for residence> — note insistence on “long term”, Capital gain on compulsory acquisition of lands and buildings not to be charged in certain cases.

@Yogendra Singh/vikram,
full consideration = 1,35,00,000
cost of acquisition = 63,00,000
cost of improvement = 0
indexed cost of acquisition = 63,00,000*632/480 = 82,95,000
indexed cost of improvement = 0
long term capital gains = 1,35,00,000-(82,95,000+0) = 52,05,000
tax = 20% of 52,05,000 = 10,41,000
education cess = 3% of 10,41,000 = 31,230
due date to avoid interest = 15 March 2010

We have an ancestral property in Chennai which is more than 40 years old. The property is for sale. Please let me know how cost inflation index is calculated for arriving at capital gains tax. We are 7 beneficiaries expecting an amount of approx. Rs. 420 L against sale of property
My father had purchased a plot in 1964 @ Rs18000/-. The Indexed cost of this plot at 1981 Index rate is around 90,000/- (Around Rs10 Lacs at 2016-2017 Index). After death of my father, I (63 years old) inherited this plot and there were some improvements and renovations 4 times between 1981 and 2002.
In 2016-2017, I got the old house which was constructed on plot demolished and re-constructed a 4 Storeyed house (approved by Municipal Corporation) through a builder @ Rs46 Lacs for 4 floors and sold 2 floors for Rs94 Lacs and retaining 2 floors for myself. (Land cost will be divided in 4 flats)
For the purpose of Capital Gain & Tax. The Cost of Land at 2016-17 Index works out only Rs 10 Lacs. (whereas Circle Rate is Rs1.27 Crores). There is HUGE discrepancy between Cost Inflation Indexed Cost and Delhi Government Circle Rates.
I want to pay LTCG taxes but what are the legitimate ways to reduce tax burden.
I will appreciate the right guidance in this matter.
house purchased in 1967 @ 5000/-
construction done in year 1970 covered area 23 sq. mt, in year 1994 covered area 7.36 sq. mt
, in year 1999 covered area 17 sq. mt and in year 2016 covered area 70sq. mt.
sale house in 2018 @2800000/- .
what is the capital gain please guide me.
