We have two types of acceleration. One is due to gravitation that is termed as g.
Other one is due do downward movement of lift that is termed as a.
When the lift is moving downward the net acceleration is (g-a)
 
time taken to reach the maximum height = u/(g-a) = 5/7
time to taken to catch back the stone = 2×(5/7) = 10/7 ≈ 1.4 s
