to claim exemption of section 54F house can be purchased within one year before from the date of sale, hence exemption can not be claimed since 2007 is not covered under prescribed period

investment to be out of capital gain, applicant has been paying instalment even prior to sale of the property. Plus Purchase should be done within 1year from date of sale
