Are There Any Bonds In Which I Can Invest My Capital Gains To Claim Tax Relief?

Answer»

Yes, as per section 54EC you can CLAIM tax RELIEF by investing the long-term CAPITAL gains in the bonds issued by the National Highway Authority of India or by the Rural Electrification Corporation LIMITED. The investment should be made within a period of 6 months from the date of TRANSFER of capital asset and bonds should not be redeemed before 3 years. This benefit cannot be availed in respect of short-term capital gain. Maximum amount which qualifies for investment will be Rs. 50,00,000. Thus, deduction under section 54EC cannot be claimed for more than Rs. 50,00,000.
