Leading authorities on Section 135(5)

Compensation received for a non-compete covenant or for not carrying on a specific business activity is a capital receipt and not liable to tax as business income.

The AO's assessment order is presumed to be with application of mind, and a mere lack of detailed discussion does not automatically imply non-application of mind.
