Section 80IB(10)(b) requires the eligible housing project to be developed on the specific plot satisfying the minimum one-acre condition. Land forming part of the approved project, including integral common amenities, may be counted, but separate adjoining land used for the assessee's personal residence cannot be clubbed merely because it is contiguous or owned by the assessee.

The ITAT therefore upheld disallowance under section 80IB(10) and confirmed the lower authorities' orders.
