Hi Tejas, Could you help me to understand, If below scenario is valid to get tax benefit. Please read all below four points before answering questions. Point1: Sale agreement date of apartment = Jan 2023. Point2: 60 percent of apartment cost(with self + home loan) paid to builder till now (July 2024). Point3: Suppose, I sold stocks(Sept 2024) and invested LTGC to finance remaining 40 percent of apartment cost through instalments (before this FY end Mar 2025). Point4: Expected possession date of apartment = Oct 2025 (Actual home registration date). Question1. Am I eligible to claim this LTCG tax benefit under section 54F in above scenario for FY24 -25? Question2. If I am eligible for LTCG tax benefit , Do we need to put LTGC amount in capital gain account till possession of property? Or capital gain account is not needed , as LTGC amount is already invested to finance the remaining 40 percent of apartment cost in this FY24 -25 ? Question3: If I am eligible for LTCG tax benefit , Can I use LTCG amount for prepayment of home loan in this FY24 -25 and get Section 54F tax benefit ? Questions4: If only option remain is to save in capital gain account for tax benefit in FY24 -25. I really want to avoid to save LTCG in capital gain account. In this case, Suppose, I sold stocks(After current FY e.g. Apr 2025) and use LTCG amount for prepayment of home loan. Can I get tax benefit in this case for F**Y25 -26(**Assuming possession date of apartment = Oct 2025)
Ans: Considering complexity in query, it would be better if you meet tax consultant and discuss the facts face to face.
