I paid an initial amount of 30% of the flat cost towards purchase of an underconstruction house in Mumbai in January 2021 (Registration - April 2021), the possession of which was promised in 2026. The construcion was stopped due to Covid and delays in permissions. The construction and restarted and new possession date is now November 2029.
If I sell my mutal fund holdings in September 2024, and pay the entire amount from the sale of my units (i.e initial invested capital plus the gains = net proceeds) towards installment for the demand that is triggered in September 2024, can I avail of the capital gains benefit under section 54F?
