The passport to derive benefit under sec. 54F(1) is investment in construction of property within the period required u/s 54(1)F or to invest in residential property within the stipulated time for enabling deduction under section 54F of the Act.
It is apparent from bare reading of section 54F that the exemption becomes available towards capital gain arising from the transfer of any long term capital asset on purchasing or constructing one residential house in India. Thus, it is patent that in order to qualify for exemption u/s.54F, it is necessary that the new asset must be a ‘residential house’.
There is nothing in Section 54/54F which specify that the residential house should be constructed in a particular manner. Any person will construct his house according to his need and on the basis of future requirements.
