Capital Gain Plan

Thanks Is investment in old house allowed?

As I understand, there is no restriction to buy/construct only a new house (i.e. even existing house may be purchased).

House to be bought within 2 years from date of transfer. However, if not purchased before due date of filing of ITR for the relevant year, then amount to the extent of unutilized capital gain to be transferred to a capital gain deposit account.

So in this case, since the sale is effected in April 2021, you need to utilitze the gain by July 2022 (subject to any extension).

Thanks for your reply. Are you sure about the date of the utilisation.
