So can he withdraw excess 8 lacs without paying tax from capital gain account?. the exemption is claimed under section 54 which state investment in property needs to be equal to capital gain and not consideration received. Kindly advice. URGENT

Hii,

In my opinion you can withdraw the amount. Since the balance amount of Rs. 8 lacs is not a capital gain. The only issue related is the amount was deposited under capital gain account scheme. However, the amount is actually not a capital gain, so taxing of the amount is not justifiable. I think this you can convince the AO.

You can withdraw excess 8 lacs. No taxability

Thank you :)
