Dear sir,
My Aunty has sold some old jewels for Rs.7 to 8 lacs during Dec.,14 and used this fund for constructing newly her old house.
Is she liable to pay any tax on sales?
thanks

Exemption u/s 54 will be available if new residential House is purchased within the time limit, or
New property is constructed within the time imit.
I am not sure about substantial renovation of old house being covered under this section. Can you confirm Poornima?

But if u observe the query, it is mentioned as 'constructing newly old house'. So i presumed it not to be renovation. If renovation, u r right, no exemption u/s 54F.
