10 November 2014 In whose hands you are asking? Assuming it to be in the hands of tenant....it will not be taxable as it is CAPITAL receipt. Furniture and fixtures are personal asset.

10 November 2014 No unrealised rent or relinquishment of rent is NOT taxable, as it has resulted into eviction of tenant. In the Memorandum of Understanding between new landlord and old tenant, it will be better if they mention this condition of 4 months stay without any rent.
