Quick Summary
This discussion clarifies whether Non-Resident Indians (NRIs) can claim exemption under Section 54 of the Income Tax Act when capital gains arise from the sale of shares. The consensus is that Section 54 specifically applies to capital gains from the sale of residential property, not shares. For gains on shares, other sections like 112A or 111A are relevant.

Yes NRIs can claim exemption u/s 54. If you need any help or consultancy regaining similar issue then please check your inbox.
Section 54 the IncomeTax Act, an individual or HUF selling a residential property can avail tax exemptions from Capital Gains if the capital gains are invested in purchase or construction of residential property.
So, On Sale of share sec.54 exemption not available
I agree with news of Ms. Nidhi.
Can NRI claim exemption under capital gain if capital gain arise on sale of shares??
Sir basically Sec 54 is for capital gain on sell of residential house it is not for gain on sales of shares for that you have sec 112A or 111A for short term capital gain
