....e assessing officer in taxing the long term capital gain that was further enhanced to 64,07,515/- in place of an amount of Rs. 30,17,456/- as declared in the return of income. The enhancement is made without applying judicious mind and the same is unjustified, unwarranted, illegal, bad in law and in any case without merits. 2. That on the facts of the case and in law, the Commissioner of Income Tax (Appeal-IV), Kanpur misdirected him to calculate and assess the long term capital gain on the sale of the property at Rs. 64,07,515/- thereby ignoring all together the investment made in the purchase of the new residential house as provided under section 54F(1)(a) of the Act.

....et consideration, shall not be charged u/s 54F. Nowhere does it mention consideration as per section 50C. The fiction u/s 50C is extended only to the aspect of computation of capital gains and the same does not extend to the charging section or the exemptions to the charging section. The legislature consciously intended to apply the fiction under Section 50C only to the expression used in section 48 and not in any other place. Section 50C has no effect for calculating exemption u/s 54F. The long term capital gain exemption is admissible u/s 54F(1)(b) of the Act as per working provided by the assessee wherein total taxable gain is Rs. 2,68,830/- only. Deeming fiction created in Section 50C is limited only to the extent and for the purpose of....

.... the order. 8. We have heard both the parties and perused all the relevant materials available on records. It is pertinent to note that the Assessing Officer admitted the claim of the assessee for exemption u/s 54F(1)(b) in respect of investment on long term capital gain but instead of taking actual sale consideration received, has adopted the figure of sale consideration by invoking Section 50C. This is not in accordance with the provision of Section 50C which has created a deeming fiction. Section 54F is an exemption provision and it has given its applicability in itself, therefore, Section 50C will not come under picture. The Long Term Capital Gain exemption is admissible u/s 54F(1)(b) of the Income Tax Act, 1961 wherein total taxa....
