Purposive interpretation of residential house exemption: unregistered purchase agreement alone does not defeat relief, but investment must be verified...
Leave encashment exemption for a non-Government employee under section 10(10AA) was held to be computable on the basis of the revised CBDT ceiling applicable for AY 2020-21. Following its earlier decision and co-ordinate Bench rulings, the ITAT accepted that the enhanced limit applied, so the restriction made by the lower authorities to the earlier ceiling could not stand. The matter was remanded only for recomputation of the admissible exemption on the revised ceiling, with consequential deletion of the addition to that extent.
