Dear Krishnasai,
Yes the gain arising on sale of property would be taxable in ur hands, if u r the only legal claimant of that property...Otherwise in proportion to ur share...
For calculating Gains " Cost to previous owner" will become the cost of acquisition...
For indeaxation purposes - "period for which property was held by previous owner shall be included"

Hi Dear, if the property is sold, then it definately generates taxable long term capital gains (at the rate of prevailing year) for the -
Price between the sale price and higher of purchase price (to the real owner) or 1981 value [with indexation].

S... it is taxable in ur hands if u are the legal claimant.....completely agree with Amir....
Cost of Acq. - cost of previous owner....
For Indexation - year in which previous owner acquired the property...
