25 July 2019  

Hi,

My client has sold a residential house and re-investing in another house in order to claim exemption u/s 54. Capital gain needs to be deposited in capital gain account scheme before the due date. Now that the due date has been extended,does it mean that assessee can now deposit the money in CGAS before 31 august. 

Thanks.
