Can the LTCG Earned by father be invested in house construction of his son to save income tax

Ans: No, Long Term Capital Gains (LTCG) earned by an individual cannot be invested in the house construction of their son to save income tax. Under the Income Tax Act, Section 54, an individual can claim an exemption from LTCG tax liability if they invest the sale proceeds in the purchase or construction of a residential house property. However, the exemption is available only if the individual invests the capital gain in their name and not in the name of their son. Additionally, there are other conditions that need to be fulfilled for claiming the exemption.
