Capital gain for the transfer of lease hold rights will arise in the hands of A.
(Although you are using the word SELL..... please tell me is Mr A empowered to SELL the leased land?) (To the best of my knowledge and belief, one needs to take a pre approval of CIDCO with some payment.. is that so? Please clarify for a better answer to your query.

The nature and character of ADVANCE received in the year 2010-11 will play a crucial role in deciding the taxability.
If the advance is in the nature of " Returnable subject to permission from CIDCO" OR "Clean advance" or like, it will be taxed in 2014-15 i.e. in the year agreement to transfer is made.
