Long-term capital gains tax exemption on Investment U/s. 54EC

October 24, 2020 18631 Views 2 comments Print

Section 54EC of the Income Tax Act, 1961 provides exemption from long-term capital gains tax provided an assessee invests within six months after the sale of his property in long-term specified assets. The Finance Act 2007 limited such exemption to Rs 50 lakh in any financial year. Some overzealous tax assessing officers seem to interpret this as a one-time exemption up to Rs 50 lakh only. Such an interpretation will prevent anyone taking advantage of a property sale, for example, in January 2008, facilitating an immediate Rs 50 lakh investment in January 2008 in specified assets, and another Rs 50 lakh investment before the expiry of six months after sale in specified assets.
