Property is Situated in India. You have to pay Capital Gains Tax in India.
Also, if there is any Double Tax Avoidance Agreement (DTAA) between India and the Country where you are presently residing, then you will have to pay Tax at the rates prescribed in Indian Income Tax Act or the DTAA, whichever is beneficial to you.

Dear Sir,
As per the provisions of income tax act, if you have the holding period of the asset (Plot) of less than 3 years then it will be termed as "short term capital asset" and if the holding period is more than the 3 years then it will be termed as "long term capital asset".
If your holding period of the plot is more than 3 years then amount of capital gain will e calculates as follows:
Sale consideration : XXXXXXXX
Less: Indexed cost of aquisition: (XXXXX)
Less: Indexed cost of improvement: (XXXXX)
Balance: capital gain/capital loss
you are an NRI that will not affect the situation as you are accruing an income in India which will be taxed in India according to the Income Tax Act 1961 & rule made there under.
If you want to reduce your tax liability or get exemption under the income tax act 1961 then you can invest the entire sale consideration in any residential property in India.
