11 December 2009 Eligible for exemption under section 54 provided the other conditions mentioned therein are fulfilled. The balance amount, as stated in the query, has necessarily to be deposited in Capital Gains Account Scheme,1988 before the due date of furnishing the return of income. For withdrawing the money from such bank deposit application in form C/D has to be given to the bank. Further for closing the said deposit account application has to be made, with the approval of the Assessing Officer, to the bank in Form G.
