The determinative test under section 2(1A) was whether the receipt arose from agricultural operations on cultivated land, not whether the rubber trees were originally planted by the assessee. On the factual finding that regular agricultural operations were carried on in the plantation, the sale proceeds from old and unproductive trees removed during replantation retained their agricultural character. Felling such trees was treated as an integral incident of plantation agriculture and not as a separate commercial timber transaction, even though the assessee also carried on timber business. The Tribunal held the receipt exempt under section 10(1), and left the alternative capital gains plea open as unnecessary.
