Owning of a residential Plot does not give you residential house. So to become the owner of a Residential house you can sale any number of residential plots. The capital gains on all plots adding together shall be eligible for deduction u/s 54 and any amount not utilised shall be taxed finally as Capital Gains.
Suppose you have sold 3 residential plot
A for 5 lacs and capital gain is 2 lac
B for 15 lacs and capital gain is 8 lacs
C for 20 lacs and capital gain is 15 lacs
So your total Capital gain is 25 lacs then you have to utilise the entire capital gains in your residential house to get the exemption from Capital Gains within the specified time and the amount must be deposited in capital gain account otherwise it will not be allowed.
