Seems the amount is to be assessed under LTCG in view of the following observation.
* Bar council enrollment (Sannath) is an asset per section 2(14)(a).
* Surrendering the enrollment is a transfer per section 2(47(i).
* The amount received from Advocate Welfare fund is income per section 45(1).
* Cost of acquisition is NIL per section 55(2)(a)(ii).
* Bar council enrollment (Sannath) is an asset per section 2(14)(a).
* Surrendering the enrollment is a transfer per section 2(47(i).
* The amount received from Advocate Welfare fund is income per section 45(1).
* Cost of acquisition is NIL per section 55(2)(a)(ii).

There is a debatable issue whether enrollment with bar council after passing LLB degree is an asset. In that case member of the every association is an asset. Whether stopping of practice will tantamount to surrendering of enrollment. Is this a sale of Council enrollment to any one or surrendering the same in favour of any body. Cost of acquisition cannot be Nil since this has to be obtained by paying some fees.
