Hi Friends, First of all Happy Friendship Day to all of You.

Now my query:

I have a client who sold a land of Rs 16lakhs in 2011-12 which he had bought in 1985 for Rs. 8000 only. He also bought a land in 2011-12 costing Rs. 450000. 

In this regard i want to know whether there is any way out by which tax on long term asset (Land) can be saved. Plz show me the proper way. Its urgent.
