05 January 2010 If you go for Deduction u/s 54, then whole capital gain will be exempt, and

If you go for Deduction u/s 54F then LTCG will be exempt as follow:

= LTCG * Amt. Invested/Net Sale Consideration

= 7.68 * 35/27
= 9.96 Lacs
Therefore, It is also exempt.

So, you can enjoy full exemption under both sections namely 54 & 54F

NOTE: I assumed that you made your investement in Residential Property, because both exemption is available only that kind of property.
