Cost Inflation Index for the FY 2022-23
Overview
It may be noted that Budget 2017/ Finance Act 2017 has proposed amendments in provisions relating to indexation for the purpose of determining long term capital gains. Base year has been shifted from FY 1981-82 to FY 2001-02. In respect of assets acquired prior to 1 Apr 2001, the assess now has the option to use FMV/ Indexed Cost of Acquisition for arriving at the figure of long term capital gains. It’s likely that investors in property will stand to gain in most of the cases with shifting of the base year for the purpose of indexation.
Cost Inflation Index for the FY 2021-22
The Cost Inflation Index for the FY 2021-22 is 331, with FY 2001-02 considered as the base year with a Cost Inflation Index of 100. The CII helps taxpayers adjust the acquisition cost of eligible capital assets for inflation while calculating applicable long-term capital gains.
