In the ITAT Delhi case, the issue revolved around claiming exemption u/s 54F for investment in a residential house. The CIT(A) allowed the exemption based on the purchase of a property referred to as "Makan." However, investigations revealed the investment was in urban agricultural land used for a concrete brick manufacturing unit, not a residential house. The stamp duty and lease deed also indicated non-residential use. The tribunal emphasized the requirement of reinvesting in a new residential property for u/s 54F exemption, aiming to promote home ownership and economic growth. As no proof of a residential house was established, the claim was denied, holding the land with a shed as non-residential. The decision favored the revenue authorities.
