If assessee receives capital asset by way of gift then the cost to the previous owner is the cost of acquisition.

For claiming exemption U/s 54F the the entire sale consideration should be invested in the new HP. The Assessee should not own other HP other than this new one.

Moreover the amount should be deposited in Capital gains account of bank with 6 months from the date of transfer or before duedate of filing return in order to claim exemption. As in your case the due date has completed on 30/09/2011. It is not possible to claim exemption u/s 54F
