Long term Capital Gain on transfer of residential house would not be taxed in the following conditions:-
1) within a period of one year before or two years after the date on which the transfer took place purchased a residential house;
2) within a period of three year after the date on which the transfer took place constructed a residential house.
In the above cases, the cost of purchase or construction of the new house should be more than the long term capital arises. Otherwise, the differential amount wuld be taxed.
As you are going to purchase a new house in the next year, your long term capital gain would not be taxed privided the cost of the new house is more than Rs. 10 lakh (as you said you capital gain is 10 lakh.

Sir,
You can claim deduction u/s 54 of the Act.
On selling of the New house if you purchase a new house within 1 year before or 3 years after the date of sale, the amouunt to the extent of the new house purchase is allowed as deduction u/s 54 of the Act.
Therefore if the purchase value of the new house is more than Rs. 10 lakhs then the entire capital gain is exempt.

If the due date if filling of return is coming in between the transaction of sale and purchase, then you need to deposit the same in the bank account, otherwise not.
