Rural agricultural land is not a capital assets hence not taxable
Transfer of Urban agricultural land is exempted as per section 10(37)
Transfer of remaining land is taxable
Transfer of Urban agricultural land is exempted as per section 10(37)
Transfer of remaining land is taxable
What about interest received on compensation of rural agriculture land??
@ Mukesh
Section 10(37) : An individual or Hindu Undivided Family (HUF) can claim exemption in respect of capital gain arising on transfer of agricultural land situated in an urban area...... by way of compulsory acquisition. ... ........This exemption is available if individual or HUF was owner of such land as on 02-06-2014.
Section 10(37) : An individual or Hindu Undivided Family (HUF) can claim exemption in respect of capital gain arising on transfer of agricultural land situated in an urban area...... by way of compulsory acquisition. ... ........This exemption is available if individual or HUF was owner of such land as on 02-06-2014.
1. The definition for the purpose of agriculture land is given in sec 2(14)(iii)(a)/(b) along with an explanation. If it falls under that definition, then the same will be covered u/s 10(37).
2. It does not matter whether the same is rural or urban agriculture land as long as it is covered u/s 2(14)(iii)(a)/(b) for claiming exemption u/s 10(37).
3. If it does not fall under the above section then as mentioned by you it will be taxable under sec 56(2)(viii) and deductions u/s 57(iv) to the extent of 50% of the amount of interest on compensation received will be available.
Please correct me if the above solution has an alternative view.
