The Capital Gain Account Scheme provides that the amount which is withdrawn from CAGS account should be utilised for the purchase or construction of the property within the period of 60 days from the date of such withdrawl.

If the above condition of 60 days is satisfied, then the assessee is eligible to claim exemption u/s. 54F.
