Exemption u/s 54

Dear Mini,

You can claim exemption u/s 54 only for the residential part of the immovable property.

Instead of investing in a residential house property to claim exemption u/s 54 only for the residential part, you can purchase bonds of NHAI or RECL  for a lock in period of 3 years and can claim exepmtion u/s 54 EC for both residential and commercial part of the immovable property.The maximum amount of investment is 50 lacs in a financial year.

Regards,

Fatema.

 How much exemption will be available??????

Amount of exemption will be the amount of capital gain or the investment made in NHAI or RECL, whichever is lower.
