yes, it will be capital receipt in the hand of seller and not taxable. At the time of actual sale the purchase amount of the property will be reduced by that forfeited amount and after that you will do indexation.
i.e. Purchase value of property in 1981 500000
forfeited value in any year 200000
sale value of property in 2012 5000000
now you will calculate capital gain on the basis of following values:
sale consideration 5000000
less : indexation value of 300000
i.e. 3000000x785/100 2355000
-------
capital gain 2645000
