Can u pls explain the nature of the so called HARDSHIP COMPENSATION.

Builder is paying us CORPUS amount on redevelopment of society; stating as "HARDSHIP COMPENSATION

 

Did the flat owners get this amount or the cooperative society?

According to the decision of the Bombay Tribunal in the case of Lohtse Co-operative Housing Society Ltd vs Seventh Income-tax Officer r the said corpus fund received by you is in the nature of capital receipt and not taxable. but this issue is not free from doubt.

Mam,

I the Flat owner received this Corpus / Hardship compensation from builder since developemt rights were given by our society to Builder
