One of my client being an individual has owned a Residential Plot purchased in 1985-86. Hence it is long term capital asset.the he sold the same in 2013-14.the Long term capital gain comes to near about Rs.800000/- after taking benefit of indexation.Now to avoid long term capital gain tax @ 20% i.e. Rs.160000/- whether he can invest the entire gain in another residential Plot or invest in other manner under section 54/54EC of I.T.Act & whichever is more beneficial from tax point of view

He can invest in house and get benefit of exemption u/s 54. Besides he can also invest in 54EC within a period of 6 months from the date of transfer. Maximum amount he can invest in bonds is 50 lakhs.

You can call me Ms khatri. (not mr khatri) anyways, I have not read about any restriction for having another house for claiming deduction u/s 54. This condition is for deduction u/s 54f.
