Interest on compensation /Enhanced compensation is taxable in the year in which it is received under head income from Other sources, however deduction of 50% is allowed under section 57

Thanks archit... But what about the s. C judgement which says that interest on compensation is not interest it is as per land acquisition act must be treated as part of compensation...
