X' sells a land to 'Y' on 2007.Y has no right on land at all.
If X sells the land to Y then Y is the owner of land having every right attached with the transaction of sale of the land.
The answer is based upon the assumption that X has agreed to sale the land to Y on the condition that construction will be done by X only on such land and what ever profit Y would earn, 25% of it will be given to X. Suppose X sold the land to Y in Rs 100000/ and construction done by x on the land is of 200000/-. The property is sold for Rs 350000/-.Profit is Rs 50000/. Y is retaining 37500/ and x is receiving Rs 12500/-. The transaction between x and y is in the nature of a business activity. It will be business income of both X & Y. However, in initial transaction, profit earned on sale of land by x will attract capital gains tax and that would arise in the year 2007.
