If sale of assets is clearly distinct from ordinary activities of the entity and are not expected to recur frequently or regularly,it may be considered as extraordinary item as per AS-5.

but sir AS-5 issued by iCAI contains an example which include sale of assets under ordinary activity. i think this would be consider as incidental activity to furtherance of business

It is a mater of judgment why because the definition of ordinary activity is so wide that it encompasses almost any activity a business engages in and it will thus be noticed that extraordinary items are very rare.
