31 December 2009 As per the given facts, there should be no wealth tax liability there as the plot price is just Rs. 600,000/-. WT is payable only if wealth is more then Rs.15 Lacs. So i am unable to understand the exact query, and why she paid tax for last 3 years. And for what the penalty has been levied? Please give some more details.
