As per sec. 2(14)(iii), capital asset does not include the agricultural land in India, which is not an urban agricultural land.
In a no. of cases it was held that the agricultural land does not depend on the use to which it is put to.
If the land was put to agricultural use for long period and the agricultural operations were temporarily suspended, the land does not cease to be agricultural .(Ranganatha Sastri(M) V. CIT
The use to which the transferee put the land is immaterial and not relevant. What is relevant is that in the hands of the transferor the land must be agricultural in nature at the time of transfer.
Hence, in the filing of the return , the fact that u have not shown the agri. income , does not make difference and the gain arises on the transfer of the agricultural land will still be exempt.
