23 December 2013 In case the amount has not yet been invested, the legal heir can comply with conditions provided in Section 54 to claim exemption.

where the amount is already in Capital gains account scheme, i believe CBDT Circular No. 743, dated 6-5-1996 can be applied in such a case. it was considered that where the assessee dies and the amount in capital gains account scheme is still unutilized, the said amount cannot be taxed and shall be considered part of the estate.
