Surrendered income arising from cash and stock discrepancies at business premises, and disclosed in the profit and loss account, is treated as business income where no independent undisclosed asset or non-business source is identified. The enhanced tax rate under section 115BBE, effective from 1 April 2017 without express retrospective operation, does not apply to FY 2016-17.
