12 October 2020 Assessee sold a residential Flat-A on 09-10-2020. He had already purchased Flat-B on 11-12-2018. Can cost of Flat-B be deducted from the sale value of Flat-A for the purpose of exemption under Section 54 of Income Tax Act? Kindly help.

13 October 2020 Yes, If Flat-A is long term Capital Assets than you can take benifit of Section 54 of the income tax Act, 1961[As Purchase before 1 year]...Cost of Flat-B will be deducted from long term capital Gain on sale of Flat-B

13 October 2020 Clearly NO, because Flat B is purchased MORE THAN ONE YEAR from the date of sale of Flat A.

13 October 2020 Agree, Can't take benefit, as Gap is more than 1 Year.

17 October 2020 What is the best alternative available to reduce capital gains tax?
