The briefly stated facts are that the assessee and his two other relatives Shri Ramjibhai Prabhudas and Shri Bhagubhai Valjibhai invested a sum of Rs. 1,85,000 in purchase of agricultural land which was situated at Survey No. 485/2 of Mansa village in February, 1992. The assessee’s share was 25 per cent and the investment in the said land was made by the assessee at Rs. 46,375. The said agricultural land was transferred to the above firm for a total sale consideration of Rs. 9,00,000 in July, 1995 to M/s Jaiprabhu Seeds & Ginning Factory, Mansa.

The assessee’s share was at Rs. 2,25,000 and the same was credited in the books of accounts of M/s Jaiprabhu Seeds & Ginning Factory, Mansa on account of land purchase. The assessee vide his letter dated 13th Oct., 2003 has submitted before the AO that no sale agreement was entered into with the said firm and no payment out of the sale consideration was received till date. It was stated that sale deed would be executed as and when the sale consideration of his share will be received. It was contended by the assessee that their agricultural land is situated in the rural area outside the municipal limit and hence does not fall within the ambit of provisions of s. 2(14) of the Act and not liable to tax in the assessee’s hand. But the AO has not accepted the contention of the assessee and treated the sale consideration of assessee’s share as undisclosed income of the asses see and added to the income of the assessee.
