Subject to certain exceptions, capital gain is computed in the following manner :- Capital Gain = ( Full value of consideration received or accrued on transfer of capital asset) - ( Cost of acquisition of capital assets + Cost of improvement of capital assets + Expenditure incurred wholly and exclusively in connection with the transfer of capital asset such as stamp duty, registration charges, legal fees, brokerage etc.)

At the time of Purchase of the property for acquiring title over the property, legal expenses includes lawyers fees also. If you will not pay to the lawyer, he would not prepare a Sale Deed and if Sale deed is not entered into , Property Transaction would not complete. As such in my view, it is to be included and indexation will be done from the year in which such expenses are actually incurred by the purchaser of the property. So one can say that these form part of Cost of Acquisition of the property only.
