The exemption may be full or proportionate depending on the cost of the new asset, and unutilised consideration must be deposited in the Capital Gains Deposit Scheme or Capital Gains Account Scheme within the stipulated time. The exemption is withdrawn if another residential house is acquired, if the new house is transferred within three years, or if deposited amounts remain unutilised beyond the allowed period.
