Quick Summary
Income generated from fish farming, including in ocean and coastal areas, is generally considered taxable business income. This is because it doesn't involve traditional agricultural operations on land. However, there's an exemption for income derived from fish farming activities undertaken by a co-operative society, which is exempt under Section 80P of the Act.

Income from fish farming is taxable but if the income of fish farming to a co operative Society is exempted
