Sale price is not criteria to decide the tax liability.. If the Capital gains ( Sale Price - Purchase value with some workings) exceeds the basic slab, then he may require to pay tax

Sale Price | 2500000 | |
Purchase Price | 1000000 | |
Indexed Purchase cost | 1000000/331*852 | |
2574018 | ||
Capital gain loss | -74018.1 | |
No need to pay tax |
Hope purchase was done after march in 1997 (i.e f.y 1997-98).
Since it is a plot it is obvious of getting capital loss on asset.
Any way no need to pay tax

In the above instance you need not pay tax.
If incase your getting tax you can claim exemption by investing in another house property under section 54 of IT act
