Capital gains on a property sale

Calculate capital gains and tax on a property sale (our Capital Gains Calculator): indexed cost via the CII table, long-term (held over 2 years) vs short-term, and for long-term BOTH regimes compared (20% with indexation vs 12.5% without indexation, post July 2024 rules). For property bought before 1 April 2001, the fair market value as on 1.4.2001 replaces the purchase price (ask the user for it). Optional improvement/development costs with their years are indexed too. Dates must be YYYY-MM-DD. Free.
