Surplus from sale of 25 plots was treated as capital gains, not business income, because the transaction had to be judged cumulatively: the assessee was not in real estate, the plots were acquired in one transaction, held for about six years, funded from own resources, and there was no evidence of repeated land dealing or intensive development showing a trading venture.
