Exempt u/s 10(1) for agriculture income as defined u/s 2(1A)

Yes it is treated as agricultural income.

If we assume that the land is Agricultural land, the income derived by MR X is of the nature of Rent Received from a land which is utilised in connection with cultication of Agriclutural Produce  and will qualify to be Agri Income U/S 2(1A)(c)

As per section 2(1A) of IT act,

"Agricultural income" means - (a) any rent or revenue derived from land which is situated in India and is used for agricultural purposes;

 

Thus as the owner is gettin amount from the person havin agricultural activity on that oand, this will be considered as rental income from land used for agricultural purposes and thus fallin in ambiguity of section 2(1a) and thus exempt

pls provide me the relevant case law.
