Income tax on sale of Development rights certificates

This query is : Resolved

Quick Summary

This discussion addresses the taxability of selling Development Rights Certificates (DRC) received for ancestral agricultural land in Pune that was designated for garden reservation. The consensus is that the sale is subject to capital gains tax. While not exempt under compulsory acquisition, relief may be available under Section 54B if another agricultural land is purchased, though specific Supreme Court or High Court case laws were requested for further clarification.
