According to sec 54 if sale proceeds of one house is invested in Another house property then no capital gain tax is attracted. And according to Sec 54 F if Proceeds of any long term assets sale is invested in residential house then capital gain tax is not attracted.

House -market prise 70,00,000

Unlisted shares -MP 37,00,000

Hii Sir,

As you asked, you can invest the proceeds from both the sale of residential property as well as from the shares in a new residential property and avail the exemption under sections 54 & 54F. there is nothing in the act that restricts such investment.
