Quick Summary
This discussion clarifies whether a deduction under Section 54EC of the Income Tax Act, 1961, is permissible if the investment in specified assets is made before the transfer of the original long-term asset. The consensus is that the investment must occur within six months of the asset's transfer to qualify for the deduction, meaning prior investments are generally not eligible.

It should be invested u/s 54 EC within 6 months from the date of transfer
54EC should be available when you invest in specified areas within 6 months of transfer

It should be invested within 6months of transfer

No prior investment qualify for 54EC deduction. You have to invest after realisation of capital gain within six months.
