Sec 194LA is not applicable for compulsory acquisition of agricultural land.Check with MIDC why they are deducting TDS on it.In your case  exemption u/s 10(37) would be applicable.

Yes you can avail exemption u/s 10(37). It is not section 10(38). You need not buy any other agricultural land to claim exemption u/s 54B. Section 194LA is applicable.

As you said agricultural land is situated in urban area, TDS will be u/s 194LA & the assessee cannot claim exemption u/s 10(37) as urban agricultural land is involved.
