Sec 269SS Immovable Property

Hello,
I wanted to ask, if someone receives an amount in cash in excess of ₹20000 as a sale consideration of an immovable property and deposits the same amount the same day in a bank account, will this attract penalty as the amount is directly traceable in the bank account ?

Quick Summary
This discussion addresses whether receiving cash exceeding ₹20,000 for an immovable property sale, even if immediately deposited in a bank, attracts penalties under Section 269SS. The consensus suggests that such transactions can indeed attract penalties under Section 271D, as the law covers 'any sum' received in respect of property transfer, including sale consideration and advances. While direct bank traceability is mentioned, it doesn't exempt the transaction from potential penalties.

Yes it'll attract 271D penalty subject to exceptions
No only advance is liable for penalty as this is the consideration no penalty can be levied under section 271d
PLS read the explanation given for specified sum in section 269ss. it says any sum received in respect of transfer of immovable property, as advance or otherwise. it includes sale consideration also. you can explore plethora of case laws in respect of the same
Yes it attracts 271D penalty
