I purchased a new property in Jan-2006, Registration done in June 2006 and got possession in Jan 2009. If I sell it now in Oct 2009, with approx 20 Lakhs gain, and invest in new property, do I need to pay LTCG/STCG tax? Thanks

There will be LTCG as holding period is more than 36 months that is counted from date of registration or date of possession which ever is earlier.
