If I am not wrong the contention of purchase of new asset in block shall not not be applicable in case of LAND as LAND cannot be depreciated.
In present situation we shall be required to bifurcate the sale consideration into land and building and off course majority of the sale value shall be towards the LAND.
I feel proper planning of hiving of the land into new company and merger of the same with existing PURCHASER company can be one of the options .
