Bairang Naredi v. ITO (Ranchi) (Trib.) (2020) CTCJ-Feb-P.121

S. 56 : Income from other sources–Registration of agreement– Consideration received preceding year and possession was also taken–Amended provision is not applicable–No addition can be made taking in to value of difference between value on the date of registration and actual consideration. [S. 45, 56(2)(vii)(b)]

Allowing the appeal of the assessee the Tribunal held that  the purchase transaction was completed in the financial  year  2011-12 as the assessee has paid the  entire consideration and took the possession. It is only the registration of document was pending which was registered in the A.Y. 2014-15, accordingly the  amended provision is not applicable hence no addition can be made taking in to value of  difference between value on the date of registration and actual consideration.
