Thus 2/3 share of the assessee comes to Rs. 7,97,500 by way the assessee has wrongly declared the value by Rs. 5,97,500 (Rs. 7,97,500 - Rs. 2,00,000). The assessee was under obligation to take sale consideration under s. 50C of IT Act at Rs. 7,97,500. If effect index cost is given capital gain of the assessee comes to Rs. 6,12,500 (Rs. 7,97,500 - Rs. 1,85,000).

The said submission is fallacious. An order of assessment can be passed either in terms of sub-s. (1) of s. 143 or sub-s. (3) of s. 143. When a regular order of assessment is passed in terms of the said sub-s. (3) of s. 143, a presumption can be raised that such an order has been passed on application of mind.
