as long as the land is agriculture land within the definition of Section 2(1A)

i m not getting sir ??

i mean to say that as long as the land is agriculture land, no capital gains tax is applicable.  it is immaterial whether you received consideration in kind or in cash.

but it will lead to more expensive when iwill sell that plot(which i got) ?

how would it be more expensive?

agri land situated in rural area is exempt...but if its situated in urban den its taxable... however if the agriculture is being done by d asessee on it for last 2 years den even a urban agri land is also exempt!!!

Dear Suraj, that is only if you buy another agriculture land within 2 years under section 54B

You are getting agriculature land under consideration from govt & you are not purchasing the same...Your Agriculture land is exempt so what ever you are getting for that land is also exempt..if its not so than no one agree to pay tax on the same on receipt of consideration...

Dear Nikhil,i am refering to section 10(37).His case will be coverd in that section to d best of my knowledge as its a compulsory acquisition of a urban agricultural land.And hence no cap gain....n if its a rural agricultural land then there is no question of tax only.

@ suraj.  Yup I read it in respect to 54B. I didn't consider 10(37)!!!

but sec10(37) or sec 54B not described in what way consideration is recieved ...?

then what i need to suppose ??

as we said earlier it doesnt matter how the consideration is received.  Anyways, in your case there is no tax liability.
 

ok Sir..  last querry

if i suppose it like transfer. it will be exempt..

but when i will sell it the cost of acquisition will be "0" and amount recieved will be taxable ??

then the tax liablity occur ??
