RE capital gain
Modeled wealth after 5 years
Hypothetical annual compounding; before fees and any unmodeled tax.
Highest modeled value under these assumptions: Pay assumed tax, invest in MF/PMS. This is not a recommendation. Check legal eligibility and tax treatment with a qualified professional before relying on any of these figures.
Smart tax planning notes
- If your assumed MF/PMS return is well above your assumed RE growth, paying the assumed tax and investing the balance may compound to more over longer horizons.
- Specified bonds (Section 54EC) can shelter gains up to ₹50 lakh per the notified lock-in and rate used in this illustration — not a guaranteed yield.
- Section 54F needs the net consideration reinvested in a house, and not owning more than one other residential house at the time of sale.

Rules to verify
Section 54 depends on a qualifying residential-house sale and new-home facts. Section 54F uses net consideration and other ownership conditions. Section 54EC has eligible-asset, timing, aggregate ₹50 lakh and lock-in conditions. The illustrative rates above are not statutory rates.
