Sec 54 Capital gain Account Scheme

My query is can an assesse claim sec 54 exemption only if he transfers capital gains to Capital Gains Account scheme? What if he utilized the amount for purchase of house property from his savings account itself before the due date of filing IT return?

Thanks in advance!

Quick Summary
This discussion clarifies whether an assessee must deposit capital gains into the Capital Gains Account Scheme to claim exemption under Section 54. The consensus is that using personal savings to purchase a new house property before the income tax return filing due date also qualifies for the exemption, as the core condition is the investment in a new property.

Yes. In that case also exemption can be claimed.

purchase / construction of house property is the condition to avail exemption u/s 54
