I am resident indian female aged 40. I have purchase one shop (gala) in March 2013 for Rs.10 lacs and sold it in June 2016 for Rs.60 lacs. What would be taxability on this transaction? How can I avoid taxation on this transaction. From this transaction I want to purchase residential property, so will it be helpful to avoide taxation!

Since the asset sold is a long term capital asset, Rs.50 Lakh(before applying indexation benefit) will be taxable as long term capital gain @ 20% as per section 112. However, you can avoid this by investing in one house property in India if fulfils the conditions specified in section 54F.

Hi Vinayak,
Your transaction would be covered under Long term capital gain as unde :
Sale Consideration == Rs. 60Lakhs
Less: Ind. value of property purchase== Rs. 13.20Lakhs
LTCG Rs. 46.8Lakhs(Taxable @ 20%)
In order to claim exemption you can invest the amount either in bonds as per sec 54Ec or invest in residential house as per sec 54F of Income Tax Act
