20 September 2010 I had got 5000 Silver Coins since 1979 and wants to convert the same in gold as stock in trade.
I would like to know that is there any tax liability on such conversion in the of Long Term Capital Gain?
How i could reduce my tax libility?

20 September 2010 for indexation purpose u can check the value of coins, which should be taken, for example take value which is higher of 1) purchase cost 2) value as on 01.04.1981.

second as u r converting ur investment in stock in trade, capital gain will be calculated in the year in which conversion take place but it will be taxable in the year in which such stock is sold out.

20 September 2010 Capital gains to be computed in the year of sale.

Capital gains would be the difference cost or market value as on 01.04.1981 whichever is higher less the market value on the date of conversion.
