04 March 2012 The applicable Section is 54F in such type of cases.

Further the amount utilised in construction till the due date of Return Filing of the relevant Assessment Year must be equal to or more than the sales consideration for getting full capital gains exemption.

04 March 2012 Dear Paras sir, Section 54F is applicable only when a LONG TERM CAPITAL ASSET IS SOLD.

Since in the given case, the asset sold is a SHORT TERM CAPITAL ASSET, exemption u/s 54F is not available.

In case of STCG on land, you can not get exemption under any of the sections.
