My client has sold long term capital asset. He is going to invest consideration in residential house and avail 54F.
But, new house will be jointly in name of him and his brother.
Shares will be separately mentioned in sale deed.
Consideration will be paid by them separately as per their share.
Whether he can get benefit of 54F?
Dear Sir,
Exemption u/s 54F will be AVAILABLE as long as assessee is the owner (or co/joint owner) in the new house.........
Yes......
Exemption u/s 54F is available for co-ownership...........Assessee should be a joint / co owner....
