Quick Summary
A private limited company, after selling its manufacturing assets years ago, is now selling its land and expects a long-term capital gain. The discussion explores eligibility for tax exemption under Section 54G of the Income Tax Act. This section allows for exemption if the sale consideration is reinvested in land, buildings, or plant and machinery for shifting an industrial undertaking to a rural area.

No, for getting exemption u/s 54EC any sale of asset arises LTCG then exemption can be available if any building or house is purchased within 2 years of sale and if that house or property is in construction then that should be completed within 3 years of sale

Can i get any tax benefit u/s 54G
