The Housing and Urban Development Corporation Limited (HUDCO) has been officially notified by the Central Board of Direct Taxes (CBDT), Ministry of Finance, Government of India, to issue Capital Gain Tax Exemption Bonds under Section 54EC of the Income Tax Act, 1961, effective from 1st April 2025.

With this notification, HUDCO joins a select group of Public Sector Undertakings (PSUs) authorized to offer this highly beneficial tax-saving instrument to investors.

Under the provision, capital gains arising from the transfer of long-term capital assets, such as land or building or both, shall be exempt from tax if the amount of such gains—subject to a ceiling of ₹50 lakh per investor—is invested in these 54EC bonds within six months of the transfer. These bonds will have a lock-in period of five years, providing a long-term savings avenue for investors looking to reduce their tax liabilities.

This move is aligned with the Government of India’s vision for “Viksit Bharat @ 2047”, reinforcing its commitment to sustainable infrastructure growth. The issuance of these bonds is expected to deepen HUDCO’s footprint in the capital markets by encouraging greater retail participation, backing bankable infrastructure projects, and promoting diversification of funding sources.

The 54EC bonds will thus emerge as a crucial financial instrument, enabling HUDCO to secure long-tenor funds at competitive rates, in line with its broader mission of “Financing infrastructure beyond housing.”
