16 June 2009
I sold residential property after 20 years of purchase at a profit and reinvested the profit along with additional personnal funds in the new residential property within one year of sale and rented out the same. Will I still be eligible for the Capital gain tax ? or for how long one is not allowed to rent it out to be eligible for Capital Gain tax?

(ii) The asset to be transferred must be of long-term capital asset, being buildings or lands appurtenant thereto, being a residential house,
(iii) The income from such residential house shall be assessable under the head "Income from House Property",
(iv) The transferor assessee should purchase a residential house in India within a period of one year before or two years from the date of transfer or construct a residential house within three years from the date of the transfer of the original house. (Construction must be completed within these 3 years.), and

There is no restriction on renting out as long as you are declaring the income under house property..
