One of my friend had sold his parents small flat with 11 lac in the year of 2012-13 and kept the amount in bank savings account of one year. After on one year he had purchased a home with that same amount. Now my query are :
1. Should he pay any income tax ?
2. He got the interest from savings amount of that deposited amount in bank. Should he pay any tax on interest received .

You can not get the income tax exemption under section 54 as the amount of gain should have been submitted before the due date of return, in your case it is July13. Hence the capital gain is taxable fully
