I own a piece of land in Thane jointly with my three brothers. Now we have approached a builder to build a residential property on that land. We have received two offers from the builder. One, he will pay us 40-60 lakhs and 4 2BHK flats. Two he will give us a lumpsum amount of 2.5 crores. Will the proceeds from this development be taxable, and if so what will be the tax rate in each scenario?

Capital gains will be applicable on the transaction and the same could be Short Term Gains or Long Term Gains depending on how long you have held the property.
