when Sale of Assets
1. In the first plot
Sale Consideration = Rs.18 Lacs
Less Cost (indexed)= Rs.10.98 Lacs (value for FY 2012-13)
LONG TERM CAPITAL GAIN= Rs.7.02Lacs
Your share wife Share
LTCG 3.51 Lacs 3.51 Lacs
but you can claim exemption of the purchase you are planning of Rs.60 Lacs U/s.54F
2. for 2nd Residential plot it is short term capital gains taxable under normal rates in the hands of your wife
Sale = Rs.20 Lacs
Cost = Rs.11.5 Lacs
SHORT TERM CAPITAL GAIN = Rs. 8.5 Lacs
since you have not provided with the share s of you and your wife in the plots
i have considered as 50:50
yes you can sell the house after registration
but for the 2nd plot (in wife's name) you should sell it after 3 years from purchase so as to take exemption & save tax
as exemption is not available for short term capital gains

dear sir
thank you very much for your quick reply, pl clarify :
whether we can avail exemption if we sell both the plots after our sale -registration
of NEW FLAT .( till completion of three year for plot - 2nd as advice by you ).
PL note that we had a residential house in which we lives / self occupied.Will this house effect any way to avail exemption for our further planning. pl advice

yes you can avail exemption
but you should see that the both date does not have a gap of more than 1 Year
i.e Purchase Date of New Flat & Sale of old plot (in wife name)
Suppose Purchase Date is today 31/05/2013
then the Sale Date should be on or before 31/05/2013
& the fact that you already owe a self occupied house will not affect
but you should not owe more than 1

Yes she can claim the exemption
exemption amount is =
Amount Invested in new house X capital gain/Sale Consideration
Long term CG taxable @ 20 % after Indexation
