ITR form to show closure of CGAS

I had fixed the LTCG of 20L in CGAS a/c in March 2018.
Shown it in ITR2 as exemption u/s 54 of A.Y. 2018-19.
In Feb. 20, I purchased and possessed the property worth 20L basic value from my own fund and closed the CGAS a/c. later by getting approval on formG of Assessing ITO.

My total income for AY 2020-21 is below 2.50 L.

Now for A.Y.20-21, should I show the receipt of same?
If yes, in which ITR and in which schedule??
Immediate guidance will help me in filing ITR in time.

Quick Summary
This discussion clarifies how to handle the closure of a Capital Gains Accounts Scheme (CGAS) account in your Income Tax Return (ITR). If you've already claimed the capital gains exemption under Section 54 in a previous ITR, you generally do not need to show the receipt of funds from closing the CGAS account again in a subsequent ITR. The exemption was accounted for when the initial claim was made.

Information in your query is not in consonance with your financial transactions. when your income is below 2.5 l then how could you purchase property with own funds of 20 l?
When long term capital gain arised, it means that I had sold old property and gained some profit. Out of property sold at 40L, the LTCG arised was 20L, and original capital was 20L.
Thanks for the clarification Mr. bharat... what's the nature of property sold?

as I understand from your posts, there's no requirement to show it under any column of ITR since the same has been claimed as deduction already in your earlier ITR
Residential property. Shown it in itr2 of AY2018-19 as exemption u/s 54.
Since ,the same has been shown as exempt income in earlier ITR, there's no requirement to show it again in current ITR
