No Deduction will be allowed under section 54 where the residential house property is purchase within 2years of sale of residential hou
exemption under section 54will be available only to the person who will be the owner of the new purchased property. so only brother can claim exemption
yes the brother will be eligible for exemption and assessee will for liable for capital gains for his share
Suppose now assessee & his brother jointly purchase the new property, later on after 3 years if assessee sale new property which purchased today to his brother & him self buy a new property than he can claim exemption u/s 54F at that time & no capital gain on today's property sold. Isn't it?
