04 September 2013 Sir,
I have agricultural income in the range 0f 2.5 to 3 lakhs from mango orchards (1.5 acres) ,agricultural lands of about 18 acres where vegetables ,paddy and wheat are sown by my bataidars.It is always an oral arrangement whereby I get 30% produce price (fixed at the beginning of each year at the time of agreement) by my bataidars directly so that I do not have to bother about getting involved in selling the produce.
I know that agr. income is exempt from income tax. I deposit the agr income in bank a/c. My question is in case of scrutiny what documents of proof of agr. income are required. I have only land documents to show. No written agreements or pucca money receipts (to cultivators )as they are trusted people who have been cultivating our land since the lifetime of my grandfather.
PL REPLY SOON
THANKS
