I have no agriculture land on my name But I had taken agriculture land on Rent from Land Loard for doing agricultural activities. I am paying rent to Landload as per agreement entered into us. So, I want to Know that income earned on sale of agriculture products is taxable on my hand or not ? It is cleared that Rent income from Agri.Land is exempted in the hand of Landloard or owner of the Agri.Land. But what is the tax treatment for tenant. Kindly guide me as the Income tax Act.
