Suppose i sold 2 (Long term capital Assets)residential house which was in my own name,sale price of one is Rs.70L & other for Rs.10L, and capital Gain arising from this two houses are Rs.50L & Rs.1L respectively. I purchase one new house within 1 year from date of sale for Rs.90L in joint name with one of my relative, consideration was paid in Ratio of 50:50. i.e i paid only Rs.45L for purchase,..
Now for Claiming exemption i have two doubts:- 1.Whether i shall claim exemption for Rs.45L i.e. consideration paid by me only, or for Rs.90L whole purchase consideration. 2.Exemption shall be available for both the houses or only for one house.
