A development agreement did not trigger a taxable transfer under the capital gains provisions because the possession granted was only for limited development purposes and not possession in the nature contemplated by section 53A of the Transfer of Property Act. The Tribunal also found no material to show receipt of any consideration, monetary or otherwise, in the year of execution. Applying the binding High Court ruling in Smt.
