I own a house property and I propose to sell the same. How long should I have held the property for claiming exemption from the capital gains on sale of the property?

 

Txns in advance...

Dear Vasanth,

Exemptions from capital gains are available in cases of Long term Capital Asset.

For a property to become Long Term Capital asset, the period of holding should exceed 3 years.

 

Dear sir,

The property should be held for a period exceeding three years for it to be treated as long-term capital gains. If so held and if the gain is treated as long term, you can claim exemption by reinvesting either under Section 54 or Section 54EC.

 

Regards

K.Ilayaraja.
