The reply of the assessee clearly shows that the assessee has given all the details in response to DVO’s calculation related to land and the indexation thereto. In fact, the Assessing Officer in reopening has categorically made finding and made addition to the extent of Rs.18,63,319/- on account of short working of LTCG.
