Investment on Long Term Capital Gain

Hello,

Can we invest long term capital gains in an under construction property to be completed in 6 months to 12 months ? Or can it only be invested in a property with OC to claim tax benefits ?

Quick Summary
This discussion explores whether long-term capital gains can be invested in an under-construction property to claim tax benefits. The consensus suggests that investing in a property due for completion within 6-12 months can qualify for tax exemption, regardless of whether the Occupancy Certificate (OC) has been issued. The OC primarily affects GST charges from the developer, not the capital gains tax treatment.

Yes you will get benefit of exemption for capital gains .

Thanks, you mean tax benefit can be availed by investing the proceeds in an under construction property which is to be ready in less than 12 months ?

I personally belive taxation has nothing to do with OC.....if OC is recived then developer will not charge GST.....else GST will be charged....rest as far as I know....no relation between OC and long term / short term gains....that is what I belive
