The New Indian Express Tirunelveli
|July 11, 2025
IN a bid to support renewable energy financing in the country, the Central Board of Direct Taxes (CBDT), under the Ministry of Finance, has notified bonds issued by the Indian Renewable Energy Development Agency Ltd. (IREDA) will be treated as "long-term specified assets" under Section 54EC of the Income-tax Act, 1961.
The notification came into effect from July 9, 2025. This means that investors can now save tax on long-term capital gains by investing in IREDA bonds. Under Section 54EC, individuals can invest up to ₹50 lakh in such bonds within six months of earning long-term capital gains and claim a full tax exemption on those gains.
