its depends upon situation, if taking lease and then sub leasing the land is on regular basis then it is business income otherwise it will be a income of other source.
income shall be taxable in HP head only when it is a house property not only land.

in my opinion if the assessee is in the business of obtaining lands on lease and then sub leasing it he can treat the same as his business income... else income from other sources seems appropriate..... assessee has a choice of adopting his method of accounting provided the same is consistently followed. Many case laws in this regard U/s.145 of the IT act.

Hotel is not under the ownership of such assessee hence it will not come in any case in HP head.

Income taxable in HP head only when HP is under ownership of Assessee.
