Is there any tax on amount from farmland selling?

Others 268 views 2 replies

Hi,

My mother is selling her ancestral farm land of village, which would fetch her around 80 lac. At present she have only one saving account in SBI. I want to understand, if he gets money to her saving account, will it attract any tax deduction?

Secondly, afterwards also, she will keep that amount in her saving account, will there be any tax deduction on the interest she will earn?

She heard from other people in village that if farmer sell his land, there will not be any tax for 'sometime', but I am not able to find any such clause if I search online.

If it matters, this is in UP. Advice please. 

Thanks

Any gain by sell/transfer of agricultural land in RURAL area will not be taxed. She can keep it in her savings account/FD or make any investment.

But any interest earned over the investment/FD/ or in savings account is liable to tax, when it exceeds basic exemption limit as per IT act.

If it is a rural agricultural land (rural - populatipn of 10,000 or less and used for agriculture) then there will be no tax on it. Interest on bank deposits for senior citizen is exempt upto Rs. 50,000 u/s 80TTB. Further, tax rate till 5,00,000 is nil for senior citizen.
