Hello,

I do not remember the technicalities now but can give a simple suggestion.

1. Try and develop your interest in income tax. Develop a desire to become an expert in Income tax.

2. Discuss the section and technicalities with your friends. Just be a leader and address to your friend’s problems.

3. Focus on practical problems.

4. Focus on conceptual clarity.

5. Prepare a chart of section 54 in tabular form and mention all conditions of diff sub sections. Do this yourself. Do not borrow from friend or tax book.

Remember you can do anything.

Wait for more technically sound and better opinion.

Regards

Refer V.K. Singhania. There, table is already given.

Try to focus on How each section shares same provision, and where it may different. Then learn the similarities, and remember the differences.

BEST OF LUCK !!!

Section 54 along with its subsection deals with exemption wrt capital gains generated. I had applied the following method to remeber section 54 and its subsection

Section 54 Sell house and buy house

Section 54B : It deals with transfer of land for agriculture. Amitabh Bachan(movie star) had declared himself as farmer and income tax department was against this view.So B for bachan the farmer.

54 D: Compulsory acquisiton of land.It is Dada giri of our government. So 54D remeber D stands for dadagiri of our govt.

54EC. Invest in R(EC).

54F. Acquire house from capital gains and it should be the first house of assesse. So F for first house investment.

In my thot u shud try to correlate sections wid other things. Like I correlate the sections with the flat numbers of my colony and its residents. Or u can hv ur own remembrances.
