Today if sell my plot for 2 crores and buy 4 flats for a total cost of 2 crores in same building but different floors, can I get full exemption of capital gains under section 54F. The judgement says multiple flats in same address can be treated as a single property.
It will be the date of official handover of the possession.
Sir, whether the date of “transfer” is the date of builder’s agreement or the date of officially handing over of the finished apartments by the builder?
The law is now amended as” one” residential house instead of “a” residential house. Therefore the judgement is not eff”ective any more.
In this judgement at many places they have mentioned that “A residential house does not mean one residential house. This is the situation of earlier law as the present case was pertaining to earlier period that is before the amendment so old law is applicable.
My query is after the amendment U/s 54 and 54F that is “A residential house” replaced with “One residential house” will this court judgement relevant?
Mr. Sunil It is Madras High court judgement not supreme court’s judgement
Excellent decision by supreme court.
