05 June 2015 is there any case law regarding this? is this payment termed as hardship allowance? is payment needs to be paid lumpsum at one time or there is no restriction to pay compensation at any time during the financial year.

05 June 2015 01. No case law is needed as the provisions are unambiguous.

02. The nature of payment is mentioned in the agreement entered into by and between the builder and the respective tenants. Accordingly it is designated as compensation or hardship allowance or otherwise.

03. Income tax Act has nothing to intrude into the mode of payment i.e. in lumpsum or piecemeal.
