The Court held that the expression &#8220;Municipality&#8221; in section 2(14) refers to a local body such as a Municipality, Municipal Corporation, Notified Area Committee, Town Area Committee or Town Committee. Since the land was situated beyond the prescribed distance from the municipality, the Tribunal was justified in holding that the lands were agricultural lands and were not capital assets.(AY. 2006-07) <\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>S.2(14)(iii): Capital asset-Agricultural land-Capital gains-Land situated beyond 8 kms. from municipality-Agricultural land excluded from the definition of capital asset.
