Quick Summary
This discussion addresses claiming exemption under Section 54F for capital gains when the purchase of a new property was delayed due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Although the investment was made in a Capital Gains Scheme Account, the assessee couldn't buy the property within the stipulated time. The query is whether exemption under Section 54F can still be claimed on the deemed capital gains that will be taxed in AY 2022-23.

Yes i think exemption can be claimed under section 54F

Since the time limit of 3 years is over during FY21-22, amount unutilized (from CG deposit account) will be taxed as LTCG during the FY21-22.

Capital gains tax will arise
