if house is purchaed in 3 years you can get 54f benifit and how much portion of the CG you use will decide if you will be taxed or not, if you use full, no issues, or else for time being you can park the funds in CG bonds.

Want to utilise full of capital gain in new house purchase. But onward 2015-16  you cant avail CG benefit if u have already a house on your name, is it so?pl clarify. 

even if you transfer that property to you son (but without adequate consideration )
you will become deemed owner
but sir don't worry about section 54F
you can take exemption under section 54 and no issue
in section 54 there is provision that you can invest that CG only in 1 new house property (from 1-4-2014)
it is irrelevant to that you already owned residential property
even you own 20 resi

But serch results brief that

But 54 F prevents, "when assessee owns more than one residential house on the date of transfer of the original asset".  Please check and guide.

sorry by mistake I posted that in complete reply
sir even you have 20 residential property you can avail exemption under section 54
that limit of one house is applicable only in section 54F
than go with section 54 not 54F
sir
they both are different

So it means u can invest only in one house and cant purchase 2 house from the capital gain of old house is it so?

defiantly you can't invest in more than
you can't invest in more than one residential property on or after 1-4-2014
and that amendment is applicable on both 54 and 54F

thanks for guidence

before 01/04/2014, this situation capital gain exempted, after amendment by fin.minister arun jetli, changes only one house after new purchase
