Is there any way to reduce the capital gains tax?

Refer section 54 & 54EC to claim deduction

           I hope you have  mentioned in the  query is  residential  Flat  so  Approximately  653000/- ( with indexation )  will be your  Long  term capital  gain , however you can  invest  in another residential  flat  within period  of two (2)  years , or Construct  your Own  house within a period  of  three (3)  year form the date of Sale  , then  there will be no capital Gain tax  .

           Also you have  an option to invest in Capital gain account  in Bank , until and unless you purchase new Flat or construct  new  house within given  time frame  , however you have file income tax  return and mentioned regarding this . if  you unable purchase   flat  within stipulated  time frame  after investing Capital Gain account than you will have to pay the tax . 

        Take others opinion  or  professional  help in this regard .
