Quick Summary
You can indeed set off Long Term Capital Gains (LTCG) from selling shares against the purchase of a new residential property. This exemption is available under Section 54F of the Income Tax Act. The amount of exemption is calculated proportionally based on the sales proceeds of shares invested in the new property, rather than the capital gains amount itself.

Yes, exemption can be claimed u/s. 54F of IT act.

Yes. however it shall be in the proportion of sales proceeds of shares invested in the residential property (and not in comparison with capital gains)
