They can purchase bonds u/s 54ec to claim exemption.
But bonds should be purchased within 6months from date sale.

22 March 2016 Dear Sir,

But as per my knowledge a firm cannot purchase bonds in its name.. So do they have to purchase in individual names or any other alternative is there??

This benefit is available to every asessee.
Any person (including NRI out of NRO account on a non-repatriable basis) and Hindu undivided family (HUF) through its Karta can make investments into these two bonds issued by NHAI and REC. This can also be invested by partnerships, companies, financial institutions, insurance companies, provident funds, superannuation funds, gratuity funds, mutual funds, FIIs, trusts authorized to invest bonds etc.
