At least one basic precipitant selected from the group consisting of NaOH, KOH, NH4OH, NH3, NH4HCO3 and (NH4)2CO3 is added to an indium salt solution, which contains 0.1 to 3 M of indium, in an adding time of not longer than 24 hours, while the solution is maintained at a temperature of 5 to 95° C. until the equivalent of the basic precipitant reaches an equivalent of 0.5 to 3. Then, a precipitate obtained from the solution by a solid-liquid separation is dried and calcined at a temperature of 570 to 780° C. in an non-oxidizing atmosphere which contains ammonia gas and water vapor.
