Yes, You can claim entire amount of Rs.40 lakhs as deduction u/s. 54F, provided you deposit the balance amount into Capital gain deposit account of any scheduled bank, before filing the return for AY. 2021-22.  The deposited amount should be used in the construction of residential house, over the  said plot.

P.S. Assuming all other conditions of the section are fulfilled.

You have 3 years to complete the construction. but you must deposit the uninvested account with the bank as suggested by dhirajlal.
