Yes. Your client gets the benefit of indexation. Also, your client can get the exemption from capital gains tax if he is investing that sale proceeds in purchasing a residential property within a period of 1 year.

Indexation is available to compute LTCG. If you have claimed depreciation then s. 50 would be applicable. Deduction u/s 54EC, 54F may be availed if investment is made in Bonds / Residential House within stipulated period.
