    <title>Felling and sale of eucalyptus and wattle trees held agricultural income under s.2(1A); AO disallowance quashed</title>
    <link>https://www.taxtmi.com/highlights?id=93511</link>
    <description>ITAT allowed the appeal of the assessee, holding that income from the felling and sale of eucalyptus and wattle trees cultivated on agricultural land constituted agricultural income within the meaning of s.2(1A) of the Act. The Tribunal found that the assessee undertook basic and subsequent operations, processing and sale of the produce, and that the AO&#039;s field inspection, which recorded absence of standing produce, did not negate the existence of agricultural activities. Accordingly, the AO&#039;s disallowance and consequential addition to income from other sources were set aside and the CIT(A)&#039;s confirmation of that disallowance was held unjustified; the assessee&#039;s ground was allowed.</description>
