1. Additional purchase of land is not any improvement. It is just additional purchase.

2. Indexation benefit is available over 4 acres of land, being more than 3 years. While that over 1 acre will be short term capital gain.

Note: Time period of holding for long term capital gain is reduced to two years for immovable properties. (Budget 2017)

thanks

both or only for cost of acqisition

For any amount invested before the specified period, whether it is aquisition or improvement.
