This is my response to you:
1. If you do sell your tenancy rights and there is a an obvious capital gains then you are obliged to pay taxes for the same;
2. Now, if you choose to reinvest the same in bonds within six months then you can gain exemption under section 54EC of IT Act;
3. Consult a local lawyer with your whole facts and then take steps forward.
