Tax in case of both Agricultural & Non Agricultural Income from Agricultural Land

412 views 2 replies
Suppose X owns a farm house in an agricultural land where he grows Banana, Coconut etc. and also rears livestock for milk & meat.
He earns, say, ₹25 Lacs from harvest of crops and ₹40 Lacs from sale of milk and meat. He incurs expenses of around ₹30 Lacs which cannot be bifurcated.
Kindly provide details about how income should be divided as agricultural and non agricultural along with the computation.
Thank You.

To put in short:
Nature of business: Agriculture & Animal Husbandry/live stock rearing.
Income from Agriculture/harvest = 2500000 (exempt income).
Income from livestock business = gross receipts - expenses = 4000000-3000000 = 1000000 (taxable income) or else if return filed under presumptive taxation then taxable income @ 6% of credit/cheque receipts + @ 8% of cash receipts. Let us assume 1000000 received through cheque and 3000000 in cash. Then taxable income = 300000.
Total income = 1000000+300000
= 1300000.
Total exempt income = 250000+1000000
= 1250000.
Tax effect = tax on 1300000 - tax on 1250000 = 202500 - 187500 = 15000.
Less: rebate u/s 87a of Rs. 5000
Tax to be paid = 15000-5000= 10000.
For the A.Y. 2017-18
But the 30L expenditure is not entirely ascertainable as to Non Agricultural so we have to make certain subjective calculations towards the expense allocable to non agricultural income and pay tax likewise.
Thank you!
