The Income Tax Act 1961 permits an assessee to have two residential properties for self occupation. Section 54 talks of exemption from long term capital gains on sale of a residential house and re-investment in a new residential house. Therefore prima facie you can claim exemption if the sale is of a residential house and the purchase is 0f a new residential house, even though you own another residential property.
