My father bought a property in 1992, the agreement value of which was INRXXXXX/-
This property was constructed in 1975.
Due to my fathers demise now we are selling off this property in the F.Y. 2017 & the agreement value of which is INRXXXXX/-
Do I have to pay long term capital gain tax on the amount received from the sale of this ancestral property?
If yes how is the calculation please assist me on this.
Also how much amount I need to invest in long term capital bonds to avoid the payment of long term capital gain tax

Deduct the indexed cost as on the date of sale considering market value as on 01/04/2001 from sale value to arrive at capital gains. Up to 50 lacs u/s 54EC bond can be invested.

how can a property worth Rs. 4 lac in 1992 be worth Rs. 25lacs in 2001.
please recheck this amount to arrive at result of your capital gain.

Since your individual capital gain is 181000.
You can following options
1. invest in bonds
2. pay tax @20%
3. in case you are in lower bracket of IT this can be added to your gross income also for calculation of Income tax.
4. Invest this gain in some residential house property.
