This scheme is meant for parking the amount required to be invested in the residential house for the time being until you acquire the property.
.
If you can not purchase the house within the stipulated time, then only the need of opening a capital gains account arises.

Dear Bafna sir,
I want to clear my case here:
My uncle sold N.A land of Rs.6 crores as on 27 june,2011.He had neither paid capital gain tax nor filed income tax return u/s139 within due date. He also failed to re- invest money in residential property.and not deposited money in capital Gain account scheme.
Now IT department have sent notice u/s 133(6) requiring to produce the information.
The only way to claim exemption U/s 54F is that he must purchase plot of land and construct a house within 4 months( i.e. 3 years from the date of transfer of property) LAST DATE 27/06/2014.
So as per law the taxpayer shall made deposit before furnishing the return of income or due date of furnishing the return of income u/s139(1) i.e. 31 july,2012 whichever is earlier.
I am still confused
IS IT MANDATORY TO DEPOSIT MONEY IN CGAS SCHEME?

In my view, your uncle can still file the return U/s 139 for the AY 2012-13.
.
Though the time limit of depositing the amount has gone away with the due date of filing of return .i.e. 31.07.2012.
.
The only option remains with him to sustain
his exemption claim remains -is construction of house property.
.
If he purchases a plot right now and invest the consideration for the purpose of construction of house, he still can save himself from the capital gains tax.
