You will get exemption on your long term capital gain on sale of residential property by

1. Purchase of another residential property within 2 years or completion of construction within 3 years u.s 54

2. Investing in specified bonds within 6 months of capital gain u.s 54EC (no longer available since you have exceeded the time limit)

By opening an account with your bank under Capital Gains Account Scheme  - you can claim exemption for this year. The purpose of opening this account is when you are unable to invest the whole capital gain in the year of receipt itself.

So you will not get exemption just by opening a CGAS account - you will have to invest the LTCG in residential property within 3 years max
