Best course is

Occasion deposit of the amount in Indian Bank and have it transferred to your account in Australia.

All tax issues will be taken care of by the bank.

Or in the alternative, you can occasion deposit of the amount in your Australian account, if the said bank has a branch in India

You need to get the valuation of the property done for Capital Gains Tax purposes, thereafter based on indexation calculate the tax payable, pay the tax, the balance can be transferred through the banking channels officially.

As far as Australian Tax Implications are concerned, please contact appropriate person in Australia. as I am not competent to comment on Australian law.
