07 April 2019 Whether the agriculture land is a rural ag. land then she is not required to pay any tax.
.
However, the land is located in urban area then she may have to pay LTCG tax after taking the slab benefit of Rs 2.50lac, I presume that she does not have any taxable income.
.
Further she will get indexation benefit on cost of land or the fair market value as on 01.04.2001.
