Very Urgent.......

One of my Client received Rs. 800000/- as Compensation to Waive the right on Agriculture Land which is owned by a Trust. GARDAURI was in the name of my client. However, the registered owner of the land is the Trust.

Now the Trust is paying Rs. 800000/- to my client to waive the Tenancy Rights over that Agriculture Land. And the Trust is paying that amount BY CHEQUE to my client.

Further, the Trust is also selling the that Agriculture Land to any other person.

So the questions are:

1. What wud be the Tax Treatment in the hands of the Trust and My Client (i.e an Individual)

2. Is there any way out to save the Tax on this amount of Rs. 800000/-. Please note that the amount is  being paid by the Trust is Through CHEQUE...

Dear Anand Sir, suggest me the way out to save the tax in the hands of Assessee selling the tenancy rights.....

dear sirs,

under sec 2(14)

any rural agricultural land which is not situated under the jurisdiction of muncipality or a cantonment board having a population of 10,000 or more or any notified  area is not a capital asset.

so if ur assessee's land follows above principle then there will be no capital gain taxable as it will not be treated as transfer of capital asset.

pls correct me if i am wrong.

regds

to save tax a solution can be to purchase another rural agricultural land (as specified in the section)

1) u will get deduction of the cost of accqusition

2) when u sell it there will be no capital gain taxable

pls let me know if i am wrong

thanx
