Quick Summary
This discussion clarifies whether income generated from selling fruits and vegetables grown by a manufacturing company's garden can be considered agriculture income. While it might qualify under certain tax acts, it's important to note that under the CGST Act, 2017, only individuals and HUFs are typically considered agriculturists. However, the supply of fruits and vegetables themselves is often exempt from GST, meaning no tax needs to be collected even if it's not strictly agriculture income.

Yes it can
Yes it can be considered as Agricultural Income and accordingly you can claim exemption U/s 10(1) of the Income Tax Act 1961.
Thanks a lot.
You are posting this question under GST app so i ma going to answer this question of yours as per CGST Act, 2017
As per section 2(7) of CGST Act, 2017 the term agriculturist considers only INDIVIDUAL/HUF.
So under GST it won't be considered as agriculture income.
Then is this taxable in gst? or not.
The above income is not agricultural income, however supply of fruits and vegetables is exempted under CGSTAct,2017. So if you are a registered person supply fruits and vegetables you shall not collect tax (charge gst) i.e. it is not taxable.
