13 November 2013 sale consideration flat sale 45,00,000

less: index cost of acquisiton
300000 * 852/199 12,84,000

less: index cost of improvement
400000*852/426 8,00,000

long term capital gains 24,16,000


so this ltcg is to be invested in new residential flat of cost 24,16,000 to claim sec 54....


now ma question is----- the indexation benefit of nearly 20,00,000 -can it be used to pay housing loan o/s settlement value of
19,00,000.... can it be used ... please tell me

13 November 2013 once you have invested Rs 24.16 lakhs in accordance with the provisions of Section 54, you are free to do whatever you wish to with the remaining money including repayment of loans.

13 November 2013 Section 54 says at least the LTCG amount must be used in purchase or construction of house..
If you are repaying housing loan then it will be counted in it but the remaining money will chargeable to ltcg tax...
