Redevelopment hardship compensation received as a predetermined lump-sum for shifting, re-shifting, demolition-related inconvenience and shared common areas was held to be a capital receipt, not consideration for transfer of property rights, so the addition was deleted. The first appellate authority's direction to compute capital gain on the additional 56% carpet area was treated as an enhancement of income; because no prior show-cause notice or opportunity under section 251(2) was shown, that enhancement was set aside and the issue was remitted for fresh consideration after hearing the assessee.
