He can deposit the amount in the capital gains account.
.
If he want to claim exemption against the higher valued property, he can do so , by not claiming exemption against the house of the lower cost recently purchased.
.
In case of further construction of house, on the said newly purchased house, care must be taken so as to show the entire Housing Project as a single residential unit. This can be managed easily as at the time of filing Return you have to claim exemption in respect of investment in the "New Asset", which is equal to the amount already invested plus the amount deposited in the capital gain account.
