Sheela Daniel Vs ITO (ITAT Mumbai)
The Income Tax Appellate Tribunal (ITAT), Mumbai Bench, in the case of Sheela Daniel vs. ITO, has ruled that the receipt of a free flat during Assessment Year (AY) 2007-08 is not taxable as income from other sources. The Tribunal held that the relevant section of the Income-tax Act, 1961—specifically Section 56(2)(v), as it stood during that period—was limited in its scope to cover only the receipt of a “sum of money” and did not extend to the receipt of immovable property without consideration.
