1. Under Section 54 the exemption is available if the construction is comleted AFTER transfer of the residential house property.
In this case, since the construction gets completed BEFORE the transfer, exemption is NOT available.
2. Exemption is available if a residential house is purchased ONE YEAR BEFORE the date of transfer.
So exemption will be available if the assessee purchases the house on 30.09.2010
