House property

Profit and gain from business and profession

Merely showing house property as stock in trade , rent income does not fall under Business income.

As per your query if it's single house property then rent income will be under the head Income from house property.

Besides, thanks to the judiciary,
over time and after many cases, certain key principles have emerged as templates for characterisation of rental income under the head PGBP.

It's a general question.
Depending on the motive.
