09 May 2017 Interest on compensation for compulsory acquisition is taxable in year of receipt under head "Other Sources". Alao 50% of it is exempted.

11 May 2017 Rural agricultural land is specifically excluded from the definition of Capital Asset in the Income Tax Act 1961. Earlier Capital Gain from sale or compulsory acquisition of Urban agricultural land was to be treated as per section 10(37) of the Income Tax Act, 1961. However after 2014 the RFCTLAAR Act,2013 which is wider in scope than Income Tax Act, 1961 has exempted the capital gain from compulsory acquisition of land whether it is urban land or rural land. Thanks!
