What did the Tribunal hold?

The Tribunal held that the land sold by the assessee remained agricultural land despite conversion for non-agricultural purposes, as agricultural activities continued. Therefore, the sale of the land is exempt from capital gains tax.

What were the facts?

The assessee's appeals relate to assessment years 2006-07 and 2007-08. Proceedings under Section 153A were initiated following a search, though no incriminating material was seized from the assessee's premises. The primary dispute concerns the classification of land sold as agricultural or capital asset.

What were the issues?

Whether proceedings under Section 153A are valid without incriminating material found during search, and whether the sale of land converted for non-agricultural use but still under cultivation constitutes a capital asset.

Which sections of the Income-tax Act were involved?

Section 153A,Section 2(14),Section 45,Section 48
