Section 45 & 56 IT Act | Surrender of Tenancy Rights Not Taxable as 'Income from Other Sources' Without Proven Cost of Acquisition : ITAT Mumbai

ITAT Mumbai rules that surrender of tenancy rights qualifies as a capital receipt, not taxable under 'Income from Other Sources' if the assessee fails to prove the cost of acquisition. The ruling reinforces that capital gains computation must precede taxation under Section 56, impacting property owners and tax practitioners dealing with tenancy rights transactions.
