Capital gain account scheme

shalini (CA)     18 December 2020

Hi ,

I sold a residential house in Jan 2020. Can I deposit the capital gain amount now in Capital gain account scheme to save u/s 54 ? As due date has been extended to 31 Dec 2020 for filing for A.Y. 2020-21 ,does that mean that investment period in this scheme has also been extended?

Pls guide. Thanks.
