Quick Summary
This discussion clarifies whether selling a residential property purchased in 2014 and sold in 2020, with the proceeds invested in a commercial property in the same year, results in a capital gain. The consensus is that it is a taxable long-term capital gain. However, exemptions under Section 54/54F are not applicable as the new purchase is commercial, not residential.
Yes, It's capital Gain and taxable under income tax as long term capital gain subject to claim of exemption Tax liability is subject to calculation of taxable capital gain with benifit of indexation.
You have purchased a commercial property So, benifit of section 54/54F is not available if u sale residential property and purchase other residential property than there will be no taxable capital gain
