LTCG on shares for deduction in second residential house

Mr A and B jointly own one residential house. Now they jointly buy second residential house in the names of Mr B and A in FY 2021-22.

For the purchase of second residential house, Mr A and B sold shares and long term capital gain is earned. Is deduction for LTCG available? for both and under which section?
Thanks in advance!

Quick Summary
This discussion clarifies whether Long Term Capital Gains (LTCG) earned from selling shares can be used to claim a tax deduction when purchasing a second residential house. The consensus is that both joint owners can claim a deduction under Section 54F of the Income Tax Act for the purchase of the second property.

Yes, both can claim deduction u/s. 54F of IT act.

Thanks a lot Sir!
