03 January 2017 It will not a taxable agriculture income. First it will be added to the total income and then rebate for this agriculture income will be given. However land should not be in urban area as per the definition given in Act.

03 January 2017 The land can be in urban area no problem. Sale of land in urban area only attracts capital gain tax. The income of 3 lacs will be considered as agricultural income exempted from income tax but subject to aggregation to determine slab rates if other taxable income is earned.
