As per Sec 54, If amount is deposited in CG deposit scheme, it should be used for

1. PURCHASE of residential property within 2 yrs from the date of transfer i.e before 12.02.2020 or

2. CONSTRUCTION of residential property within 3 yrs from date of transfer i.e before 12.02.2021

In case if such amount is not used, maximum u can postpone or avoid tax for 3 years. It must be taxable in 3rd year. Here in ur case 3 years from 12.02.2018 will be completed on 12/02/2021. So it will be taxable in FY 2020-21 or AY 21-22
Agree with Naveen
Ok thanku
Right. it will be taxable in the FY in which period of 3 years expire.
