My client has claim an exemption u/s. 54F by purchasing a resi house,
now he is selling this property i.e. within 3 years,
gain calculated on sale of this resi house should be treated as long term or short term

Dear urvi jitendra bhavsar...
Since not held for more than 36 months i.e. 3 years....Short term capital asset and therefore....
SHORT TERM CAPITAL GAIN....
Moreover the amount allowed as exemption u/s 54F will be taxed now....

Dear Urvi,
The amount of capital gains arising from the transfer of original asset,which was not taxed earlier,will be deemed to be the income by way of long term capital gains
