Interest received on enhanced compensation for compulsory acquisition of rural agricultural land, though described as interest under s.28 of the Land Acquisition Act, was held to be taxable as "Income from Other Sources" under s.56(2)(viii) and chargeable in the year of receipt under s.145B(1), rather than forming part of exempt compensation under s.10(37).
