Quick Summary
This discussion explores whether capital gains from selling a residential property can be used to purchase a commercial property to save Capital Gains Tax. The consensus is that to save tax under Section 54, you must reinvest in residential property. However, Section 54F allows for tax savings if you sell a commercial property and purchase a residential one within specified timeframes.

No, to save Capital Gain tax u/s 54 on selling residential property, you have to Purchase residential house property only.
No you can't but as per section 54F of the income tax you can save capital gain tax by saling a commercial property by purchasing a residential property but with in a year before or with in two years after the date of sale
