Hi every one,

 

I sold residential house for 50 lakh and my capital gain is 20 lakh. After that i purchase a residential house for 18 lakh which includes stamp duty 1.5 laksh

 

So my question is will i get exemption in section 54 for paying stamp duty amount also or only net amount invested in new house.
