No he can't....... Only land purchased after sale is eligible for exemption u/s 54 B

If someone claims that the he recived the sale consideration in advance and purchased the land out of it, in that case, is he elibile for above exemption? Please quote a case law regarding this scenario, in case any.

Yes there will be capital gain. As per section 45(2), if the capital asset is converted into stock in trade,tax shall be charged on the capital gain  on the stock in trade transferred. The acquisition cost will as it was in the hand of previous owner i.e. your father. To calculate the capital gain, sale consideration will be take as fair market value of the asset on the day of convesrion into stock in trade.
