b. 20,00,000
c. 31,69,014
d. 38,30,986
Ans - d
Solution :
Acquisition price of the property : 1-Sep 2001 = 12,00,000
Market Value when inherited: 28-Dec-2009 = 50,00,000
Sales consideration : January 2017 = 70,00,000
CII: 2001-02 = 426
CII: 2009-10 = 632
CII: 2016-17 = 1125
Index cost of acquisition for Capital Gains = 31,69,014 (1200000*1125/426)
Capital Gains = 38,30,986 (7000000-3169014)
