PANKAJ KUMAR AGRAWAL,BILASPUR(CG) vs. ITO, WARD- 1(1), BILASPUR(CG)
What did the Tribunal hold?

What were the facts?

What were the issues?
Whether the agricultural land sold was within the definition of capital asset for exemption purposes, and whether the investment period for new agricultural land should be counted from the sale agreement date.
