The capital gain is to be invested in a single property. but the exemption will be applicable if the person is not having any other resedential property.

The Capital gain is allowed only if the peron sells one property and buys another (only one).
Even if the houses are in one compound they are seperate dwelling units as registered and hence seperate houses (unless they are used as one)
