Regarding section 54F

This query is : Resolved 

24 July 2010 Whether interest paid on loan to construct the new house can be considered as expenses for computing exemption u/s 54. If yes please tell me where it is written and if there case laws please give me the names of case laws?

25 July 2010 Exemption U/s 54F is available to Individual and HUF assessees if the net sales consideration received by them from sale of a long term capital asset is invested in a residential house. Construction of the new house with borrowed funds is not intended by the legislature. It requires the investment
up to the amount of Net Sales Consideration for exempting the capital gains. As such, in my opinion, the cost incurred towards interest would not be added in ascertaining
the amount invested in the new Residential House.
