It is not in dispute. Once the sale consideration is utilized for the purpose mentioned under sections 54 and 54EC, the assessee is entitled to the benefit of those provision. As the entire consideration has flown from the assessee and no consideration has flown from her husband, merely because either in the sale deed or in the bond her husband's name is also mentioned, in law he would not have any right. - the assessee cannot be denied the benefit of deduction - Decided in favor of assessee.
