Regarding ltcg on sale of land

One of my client sold one of his land possesed before 10 years, his advisor advices that he has the only option to invest in REC like bonds to save his LTCG.

My question is whether it is possible to pay LTCG tax by paying @ 20% (with indexation benefit) and avoiding investment in REC like bonds, so that he can use the sale proceeds with his own choice.

Advance thanks in this regards.
