Quick Summary
This discussion clarifies the tax implications of a wholly cash property transaction exceeding Rs 2 lakhs. According to Section 271DA of the Income Tax Act, the seller is liable for a penalty equal to the transaction amount if they receive over Rs 2 lakhs in cash. This penalty may be waived if the seller can prove valid reasons for the contravention.

Section 271DA  of the income tax act provides for the leavy of penalty on a person who receive a sum in contravention of the provisions of section 269ST  ( more than 2 lacs in cash ) , The penalty shall be equal  to the amount of such receipt , however the penalty shall not be levied if the person proves that there were good and sufficient  reasons for such contravention . In your case seller who receive money more than 2 lacs in cash is taxable .
