Your capital gain will be Rs 2.80 lakhs [ 41,50,000 - 3870790 (indexed cost -22,00,000 *1024/582) Index value of FY 2014-2015 was 1024 and for FY 2008-09 was 582 . Interest on loan cannot be added to cost of acquisition but can be deducted from income under section 24b. each year during the tenure of loan.
