ITAT allowed the assessee's appeal and deleted additions under sections 50C and 56(2)(x). The Tribunal found the property transfer was inter se relatives (sold to sister-in-law), supported by family chart, ration-card evidence and notarized affidavits, and that the excess of stamp-duty valuation over sale consideration was characterized as gift. Consequently, the differential valuation did not constitute income under section 56(2)(x) and section 50C was inapplicable on the facts. The Tribunal held that both the AO and CIT(A) erred in treating the stamp-duty excess as taxable consideration, and directed deletion of the impugned additions, allowing the appeal.
