Suppose a person is having construction business, he purchased a plot of land for Rs 50 lakhs in 2000-01 & sold it to a firm in which he is a partner for Rs 96 lakhs in 2012-13. Whether it is a capital gain or business income? His business is construction business & not purchases & sale of land. If it is a business income whether he is liable for tax audit?

if it was for the purpose of business then it will be considered as stock in trade and capital gain will not attract and income will be taxable under business head.
