Quick Summary
This discussion explores the income tax impact of selling agricultural land for £28 Lakhs, where £8 Lakhs was received in cash (deposited directly by the buyer). While agricultural land is generally not a capital asset, the receipt of cash exceeding £2 Lakhs can attract penalties under Section 269ST of the Income Tax Act, regardless of how it was deposited.

Agricultural land is not a capital asset as per Capital gains provision so no tax impact will be there on the transaction whether it's cash or bank transaction..
