Transaction of Sale and Purchase of Agriculture Lands are shown under the head Capital Gains, generally. If the Agriculture land sold is a Rural land then, there will be neither Capital Gain nor any taxable profit.
If a person sells his urban agriculture land which has been used by him or any of his parents for agriculture purposes (within 2 years from sell), and if he invests resulting gains in purchasing an agriculture land within 2 years, he is entitled to get exemption U/s 54B.
