Assessee surrendered allotment of flats, received refund from builder, and claimed long-term capital loss. Held: Assessee acquired 'right to acquire' flats, a capital asset. Surrender of this right constitutes transfer, attracting capital gains computation. Section 50C and 56(2)(X) inapplicable as transfer involved 'right', not land/building. Capital loss carry forward allowed. Penalty under 271(1)(c) not imposable for withdrawing expense claim voluntarily before confrontation by AO, as it would discourage return defect disclosure and violate fairness in tax administration when interest on differential tax paid. Assessee's honesty cannot attract penalties. ITAT allowed assessee's appeal.
