Hi,
Since you are willing to pay capital gains tax there is nothing to worry.
However you need to finalise on the following with your lawyer before signing agreement of sale as issues such as
1) year of assessment(since registration is to be done later).
2) indexation computation.
3) possession under sec 53 of transfer of property act (now or at the time of registration).
Hope this helps
