Characterization of receipt - amount received by the appellant upon retirement from the partnership - taxability as capital gains under the Income Tax or not? - The High Court agrees with the appellant's argument that the amount received by her upon retirement, being the balance of her capital account in the firm, does not qualify as a transfer for the purpose of capital gains taxation.
