As I understand, the exemption in case of industrial undertaking is available only on compulsory acquisition or shifting from urban to rural area or SEZ. So LTCG would be taxable. However, if you would invest in NHAI/REC bonds, you may be able to avail exemption u/s 54EC.

In addition to what has been stated herein before, an deduction u/s. 54G of IT act can be availed, if the conditions stipulated therein gets satisfied.
