RELEVANT PARAGRAPH
9. In the backdrop of the aforementioned factual matrix, the assessee-appellant has filed the instant appeals raising the following substantial questions of law for determination of this Court:-
“(i)Whether on the facts and circumstances of the case, the Ld. ITAT has erred in law in modifying its earlier order Annexure A-5 by passing orders Annexure A-11 and A- 12,when the matter relating to date of acquisition of property measuring 78 Kanal 1 Marla and the date on which the Right to receive compensation accrued to the assessee, was a debatable issue? (ii)Whether on the facts and circumstances of the case, the acquisition proceedings in the present case were initiated on 15.7.1992 when the Resolution was passed by Improvement Trust and alternatively on 22.7.1994, 29.7.1994 or 5.8.1994,when the Notifications as such were published in the Official Gazette of Punjab Govt.? Therefore, the Ld. ITAT has erred in law to hold that the proceedings of acquisition were initiated in 1997.
(iii)Whether on the facts and circumstances of the case, the right to receive compensation is vested in the owner of the property on the date of passing of the Resolution by Improvement Trust or its vests on the date of notification in the Official Gazette or on the date when the property is actually acquired?
(iv) Whether on the facts and circumstances of the case, the Ld. ITAT has erred in law in upholding the order of the lower authorities, whereby the entire chunk of land measuring 106 Kanal 15 Marla was included in the urban land as defined in Section 2(ea)of the Act ibid, when no construction activity was possible on the land under the provisions of local Acts of Punjab as in force during those assessment years and also after the passing of the Resolution by the Improvement Trust before 31.3.1993?
