shall i get exemption under capital gains for 10 lakhs or not ?????

24 March 2012 Yes you will get the exemption (but under Section 54F and not under Section 54) provided you invest the whole amount before the due date of filing return.

Further exemption is available as the construction will be completed only AFTER the sale.

However, if you are not able to invest the whole amount by the due date, then you will have to deposit the same in a Capital Gain Account with a nationalised bank BEFORE the due date.
