yes

If the prize winner happens to be a professional car racer, then it would be assessed under the head "Business income".

On the other hand, if the person is not a professional, then such income would be assessed under the head "Income from Other Sources".

Either which way, such income will never be exempt under the act.

If Mr.  X's proffession itself  a car race it is taxable under business or proffession else it is taxable only under IFOS

this is taxable as casual income as the nature non recurring

and it is taxable @ flat rate of 30%

i don't agree with Mr. JEEVARATHINAM 

in my opinion

 If the prize winner happens to be a professional car racer, then it would be assessed under the head "Business income".

 

But if the person is not a professional, then such income would be assessed under the head "Income from Other Sources".

In any case such income will never be exempt under the act.
