13 June 2014 In the year in which Asset is transfer to the business, Capital Gain would be taxable. Indexation would be applied
Cost of Acquisition X index cost of year in which asset is transfer to business / index cost of year of Acquisition.

In the year of sale of asset, it would be leviable as Profit & gains in Business and Profession.
