4)How will agricultural rent be treated?who will show it in returns?
5)If the agricultural land is sold whose capital gains will it be.mine or wife's?

18 December 2013 You have gifted the land. Incom arising therefrom will be taxed in your hand. Thus agricultural income will be included in your income for rate purpose.
