Possession of the old shop will have to be given on receiving possession of new shop. Whether the company has to deduct 20 lacs from block of assets as the old shop is sold and add 20 lacs as new office is given without any payment being made and claim depreciation on the opening wdv? Further whether the department can say that the company is liable to include income of Rs. 10 lacs under section 56 as it has not paid the market value of the new shop? The company is paid more than what similar persons in the same building are paid ( some persons have accepted consideration only and not any property and the value of which is less than what the company is given in form of the shop)and the builder would be stuck if the company doesn\u2019t agree for the deal. Instead of entering into an agreement for relinquishing rights in the old shop for the purpose of redevelopment, the developer is entering into an exchange agreement.The developer and the company are not related to each other.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","template":"","qa_expert":[1275],"qa_category":[23],"qa_tag":[459],"class_list":["post-59950","qa","type-qa","status-publish","hentry","qa_expert-law-intern","qa_category-income-tax","qa_tag-redevelopment"],"acf":[],"jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/itatonline.org\/digest\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/qa\/59950","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/itatonline.org\/digest\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/qa"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/itatonline.org\/digest\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/qa"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/itatonline.org\/digest\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=59950"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/itatonline.org\/digest\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=59950"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"qa_expert","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/itatonline.org\/digest\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/qa_expert?post=59950"},{"taxonomy":"qa_category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/itatonline.org\/digest\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/qa_category?post=59950"},{"taxonomy":"qa_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/itatonline.org\/digest\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/qa_tag?post=59950"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
