Capital gain

This query is : Resolved 

10 November 2012 One of My clients has purchased 3 Industrial Galas as on 02/05/2005 which he has sold on 25/10/2012 to various parties for about 2200000/-.
Against the above proceeds he has purchased a Residential house.

Can he claim exemption u/s 54F for FY 12-13?

Your reply would be appreciated

10 November 2012 For claiming exemption u/s 54F the assessee should be individual or HUF and available only for long term capital gains.

If yes, He can claim proportionate exemption to the amount invested in a residential house provided he does not own more than 1 residential house property on the date of transfer(excluding the new house property ).

10 November 2012 An Industrial Building is a depreciable asset and the resulting capital gain arising on transfer of a depreciable asset is short term capital gain as per Section 50.
However, the concept of short term capital asset is limited for Section 50 only.
.
Whereas, in the per view of Section 54F, as the Capital Gain is arising out of transferring of a "long term capital asset", capital gain is eligible for exemption on satisfying other conditions prescribed U/s 54F.



11 November 2012 He can avail exemption u/s. 54F as above replies and/ or he can claim exemption u/s. 54EC by investing amount of Capital gain in prescribed bonds.
