15 March 2011 You should opt for Section 54F rather than Section 54 for getting exemption of LTCG.

Even though the property is being sold in the form of house but for the assessee it is land which is Long Term capital Asset and the construction work can be treated as cost of its improvement.

In such a case , you may enter into an agreement specifying separate consideration for land and construction work, if possible.

17 March 2011 Land may be treated as Long term asset and building as short term asset and calculate Capital gains accordingly. Madras High Court decision in Dr. Ramachandra Rao's case may be referred to.
