Agricultural land sold in FY 10-11 Advance Received in FY 10-11 from that advance One agricultural land purchased on FY 10-11 and registry has been made on FY 10-11 but the registry for the land which is sold on FY 10-11 made on FY 11-12. Can expemtion can be claimed for the purchase of land on FY 10-11 u/s 54B?

well if you have transferred the possession in FY 2011-12, then yes, you should be able to claim the deduction under 54B. but in such a scenario, you should not refer to money received as advance!
further, the registry itself is not the conclusive proof..the relevant factor is the possession.
