Not taxable.

Sir, can you please quote law language to support ur answer

As per Section 10(1) of the Income Tax Act, 1961, agricultural income is exempted from taxation.

There is no specific restriction over any assessee earning agricultural income.

1. As per sec 10(1), agriculture income will not be exempt from payment of tax. As per sec 2(14) capital asset does not include Rural agricultural land. Hence any gain arising out of the sale of such land will not be subject to capital gains tax. 
2. The above provision also applies to Companies. So either of the income will not be taxable. 
Please correct me if the above solution has an alternative view. 

agricultural income is always exempt whether assessee is individual, company, etc
Always exempt
