Sec 96 of which act???

Section 96 of the Act says that income tax shall not be levied on any award or agreement made under this Act. Therefore, compensation received for compulsory acquisition of land under this Act is exempted from the levy of Income tax

The CBDT Circular No. 36/2016 dated 25.10.2016 categorically stipulates that compensation received for compulsory acquisition of land in respect of an award or agreement which has been exempt from levy of income tax vide section 96 of RFCTLAAR Act, 2013 shall also not be taxable under the Income Tax Act, even if there is no specific provision of exemption for such compensation in the Income Tax Act, 1961.

Sourav, don't just reply, get conceptually clear. Sec 96 of income tax is not for compensation.
