The tribunal affirmed that interest on enhanced compensation awarded under section 28 of the Land Acquisition Act constitutes income from other sources, taxable under the amended provisions introduced by the Finance (No. 2) Act, 2009. The amendment represents a deliberate legislative change, rendering prior judicial interpretations inapplicable. The ITAT's reliance on pre-amendment precedent was held erroneous. The court upheld the amendment's validity and clarity, rejecting any ambiguity or challenge to its vires. Consequently, the substantial question of law was decided in favor of the Revenue, confirming the taxability of such interest income. The assessee's appeal was dismissed, reinforcing the amended statutory framework governing the assessment of interest on compensation under the Act.
