Capital Gain Bonds (54EC)

Sold property recently? Section 54EC capital gain bonds can help you save long-term capital gains tax while earning a fixed return.

Overview

When you sell land or a building and realise long-term capital gains, Section 54EC of the Income Tax Act allows you to invest the gains in specified bonds (issued by entities such as REC, PFC and IRFC) to claim exemption from capital gains tax, subject to conditions and limits.

Timing matters โ€” these bonds must typically be purchased within 6 months of the sale/transfer of the property. We help you understand the window, the investment limit, and the issuer options available at the time.
