As per the Income Tax Act'1961 the compensation received for compulsory acquisition of immovable property is to be treated as Deemed transfer of Capital Asset, hence chargeable to income tax under the head "Capital Gain".

As per Sec.45(5) of the Act, such compensation will be taxable in the previous year in which it is first received. For the purpose of calculation of capital gain tax, the Full Value of Consideration would be the compensation awarded.
