2 What Capital Gain bonds are avilable and what is the minimum time to stay invested in CG Bonds to save Capital Gain Tax.
3 What is rate of interest in CG bond and is it tax free?
you need to invest whole of capital gain to save tax on long term capital gain. You will have to hold these bonds for three year from the date of purchase.However the total investment should not increase 50lacs rupees.
Please note that investment can be made in bonds issued by National Highways Authority of India or by Rural Electrification Corporation Limited.

Capital gain is the amount which is taxable in the hands of the assessee, so capital gain after indexation would be the amount to be invested.
