CAN ASSESSEE CLAIM BENEFIT US 54 though property sold is a residential house but not taxable u/s 22

i have seen in  book that exemption cannot be claimed in that case

Answer to Q1 -

Seciont 54B  clearly mentions exemption is allowed on capital gain from transfer of land used for agriculatural purpose and not residential house.

Section 54F states that exemption of capital gain from transfer of long term asset other than house property by purchasing a residential house

correct
but my querry is for sec 54 exemption for residential house property used u/s 28 not taxable u/s 22

Ankush... Section 22 only deals with rental incomes and nt capital gain arrising frm sale of such house... Ofcourse u cn take exemption bcoz sale of house property comes u/h capital gain...
