Meaning of "Any long term asset" -

1. A person sales jewellery made of gold -4 bangels, necklace, nosepin ,all long term capital assets. All can be individually identified  & separable.

2. Shares, held for long term, of various companies, transferred and LTCG of Rs 10.00 lac has arisen.

Whether Sales Consideration if invested in residential house, LTCG  would be exempt U/s 54F  or not  ?

The answer  is Yes.

On this logic I can say that LTCG arising on sale of two land plots, if invested in Residential House, U/s 54F exemption will be available for  the gains in both the plots.
