The assessee undertook a project under the scheme of Slum Rehabilitation Authority (SRA) framed by the government of Maharashtra for carrying out a housing project.

The CIT(A) and Tribunal affirmed the view of the AO. The Assessee filed an appeal against the order passed by this Tribunal before the Hon\u2019ble Bombay High court.\u00a0 Hon\u2019ble Bombay High Court, set aside the order to Tribunal .

Further with regards to the condition\/requirement of section 80IB(10)(b) in respect of the project size of the plot of 1 acre is concerned, the a proviso has been added to sub clause (b) to section 80IB (10) as per amendment by finance Act (2) 2024 w.e.f 01.04.2005, wherein the condition of 1 acre has been relaxed in the cases of Delhi or Mumbai on the condition that the relaxation was subject to the approval by local authority under slum rehabilitation scheme and notified by the CBDT.
