I was gifted 50000 shares of a private limited company (not listed in any exchange) by my mother 3 months back. I am getting an offer to purchase at Rs 50/- per share. What is my Capital Gain tax. My mother had purchased them at Rs 10/- about ten year back. What best should I do as these sahres are not easily saleable

Indexation on amount paid by her will be allowed from the day your mother had acquired the shares (for computing the indexed cost of acquisition) . LTCG taxable @ 20%
