[Arup Dey]

Dear sir,
I have a question about capital gain.Suppose Mr.A get some agricultural land from his father mr.B . mr.B also got those lands from his father.I mean these lands are all family asset.Now Mr.B is no more.Mr.A sell those land,now how to calculate capital gain from this type of selling,where no purchase value is avaiable.These lands are far away from urban area(mean more than 8 k.m).

If it is an agricultural land satisfying the conditions for ag. land, then no income would be taxable from transfer of such land.
