Is 54F exemption applies if New House constructed on old plot


This query is : Resolved 

Quick Summary
This discussion clarifies whether an assessee can claim an exemption under Section 54F of the Income Tax Act when they sell land, realise long-term capital gains (LTCG), and reinvest this in constructing a new residential house on an existing, vacant plot. The consensus is that the exemption is indeed available even if the new house is built on an old plot, provided it's a new construction on a vacant piece of land.

07 January 2024 Assessee has sold a land and earned LTCG, which he has invested in construction of new residential house on an existing plot of land, so is the assessee eligible to claim the exemption u/s 54F, by contructing new house on old and existing plot?

07 January 2024 No building it's a vacant plot

07 January 2024 Yes, 54F exemption available in such a case.

07 January 2024 Thnx so much everyone 🙏
