When selling a residential property, you may be able to save on Capital Gains Tax by reinvesting. The key question is whether you need to reinvest the entire sale price or just the capital gain amount. Expert advice confirms that only the capital gain portion needs to be reinvested to qualify for tax exemption.
In order to save capital gain tax on sale of residential property, do we need to reinvest entire sales consideration or only the capital gain amount of the sale value to buy another already constructed residential property within 2 years of sale. Pl advise. Thanks..
