PER RAJPAL YADAV, VP
The assessee is in appeal before the Tribunal against the
order of ld. Commissioner of Income Tax (Appeals) [in short
‘the CIT (A)’] dated 16.12.2024 passed for assessment year
2013-14.
2. Though the assessee has taken four grounds of appeal
but her solitary grievance revolves around a single issue,
namely, whether addition of Rs.17,80,299/- is sustainable in

her hand with the aid of Section 50C of the Income Tax Act,
1961 or not.
3. The brief facts of the case are that assessee has sold an
Industrial Shed bearing No. 366, Industrial Area, Phase-2
Panchkula on 22.05.2012 for total consideration of
Rs.4,80,00,000/-. The AO was of the view that Stamp Duty
evaluation of this property was taken at Rs.4.97 Cr., hence,
this value deserves to be deemed as full sale value u/s 50C of
the Income Tax Act for computing Long Term Capital Gain.
Accordingly, he made the addition of Rs.17,80,299/-.
4. Appeal to the ld. CIT (Appeals) did not bring any relief to
the assessee.
5. Before us, ld. counsel for the assessee drew our attention
towards the copy of the Sale Deed available on page No.22 to
28 of the Paper Book. He submitted that an Agreement to Sell
was executed in the month of March,2012. At the time of
Agreement, assessee has received part payment through
Account Payee Cheque on 12.03.2012. The assessee has
received six cheques on 12.03.2012 for consideration of Rs.5
lacs, Rs.5 lacs and four cheques for Rs.35 lacs. Thereafter,

on 15.03.2012, she again received cheques for a consideration
of Rs.30 lacs and Rs.20 lacs. Thus, according to the ld.
counsel for the assessee, her case falls within the 1st and 2nd
proviso attached to Section 50C of the Act which has been
declared as applicable with retrospective effect.
6. The ld. DR, on the other hand was unable to controvert
the contention of ld. counsel for the assessee.
7. With the assistance of ld. Representative, we have gone
through the record carefully. Section 48 of the Income Tax Act
provides mode of computation of capital gains. It
contemplates that income chargeable under the head ‘capital
gains’ shall be computed by deducting from the full value of
the consideration received or accruing as a result of transfer
of the capital asset following amounts, namely;
a) Expenditure incurred wholly and exclusively in
connection with such transfer;
b) The cost of acquisition of the asset and cost of any
improvement thereto.
8. Section 50C of the Act is a deeming Section. It
contemplates that where consideration received or accruing as
a result of the transfer by an assessee of a capital asset, being

land or building, or both, is less than the value adopted or
assessed by an authority of the State Government for the
purpose of charging the Stamp Duty, then such valuation
would be considered as a deemed full sale consideration
contemplated in Section 48 of the Income Tax Act. In other
words, the full value of consideration provided in Section 48
would be replaced by the amount on which Stamp Duty is
being charged from the assessee. The only condition is that
full value of sale consideration provided in Section 48 should
be lesser than the Stamp Duty valuation for the purpose of
charging the Stamp Duty. To this extent, there is no dispute
in the present appeal. The disp
