first of all, it is to be noted that LTCG cannot have chVI A  deductios.

i.e.(500000-160000)*20%=68000+cess2040=70040

2)as said above 80c deductions will be restricted to 35000.

YES, I agree with ur answer. Deduction under chapter VI A cannot be claimed against LTCG.

Which section of the income tax act permits the adjustment of standard basic exemption (160K) against the LTCG while computing the tax liability.

section 111A allows the adjustment of standard basic exemption against the LTCG while computing the tax liability.
