Hello, I recently sold a property and my long term capital gain is 1.08 CR. I am an individual and not a joint party. Is it possible that I invest 50 lakhs in capital gain bonds and use the remaining 58 to purchase a property? Will I be exempted of the tax then?

Yes, it is possible.
Is it property sold value or long-term capital gain.
Because long-term capital has to calculate by Index formula.
It is long term capital gain after calculations. I am planning to invest 50 lakhs in bonds and rest in the property. Can I do both at the same time and will it result in any kind of income tax or anything?
