Introduction:
AgriculturalincomeearnedbyataxpayerinIndiaisexemptunderSection10(1)oftheIncomeTaxAct,1961.Agriculturalincomeisdefined
undersection2(1A)oftheIncometaxAct.
Aspersection2(1A),agriculturalincomegenerallymeans(a)AnyrentorrevenuederivedfromlandwhichissituatedinIndiaandisused
foragriculturalpurposes.(b)Anyincomederivedfromsuchlandbyagricultureoperationsincludingprocessingofagriculturalproducesoas
torenderitfitforthemarketorsaleofsuchproduce.(c)Anyincomeattributabletoafarmhousesubjecttosatisfactionofcertainconditions
specified in this regard in section 2(1A). Any income derived from saplings or seedlings grown in a nursery shall be deemed to be
agriculturalincome.
MeaningofAgriculturalIncome:
Section2(1A)oftheIncomeTaxAct,1961definesagriculturalincomeasanincomeunderthefollowingthreesources:

(a) The land should either be assessed to land revenue in India or be subject to a local rate assessed and collected by officers of the
Government.
(b)Ininstanceswheresuchalandrevenueisnotassessedornotsubjecttolocalrate,thelandshouldnotbesituatedwithinthejurisdiction

not being more than 8kms. from the local limits of any municipality or cantonment board and which has a population of more than
10,00,000.
(c)Therevenuemustnotincludeanyincomearisingoutoftransferofsuchland.
Further, a direct nexus between the agricultural land and the receipt of income by way of rent or revenue is essential. (For instance, a
landlordcouldreceiverevenuefromatenant.)
(ii)Anyincomederivedfromsuchlandbyagriculturaloperationsincludingprocessingofagriculturalproduce,raisedorreceivedasrentin

TaxabilityofAgriculturalincomepostamendmentbyFinance(No.2)Act,2014
Agricultural income is considered for rate purposes while computing the income tax liability, if following two conditions are cumulatively
satisfied:
1.NetAgriculturalincomeexceedsRs.5,000/forpreviousyear,and
2.Totalincome,excludingnetAgriculturalincome,exceedsthebasicexemptionlimit.
Note:IfaggregateagriculturalincomeoftheassesseeisuptoRs.5,000/duringFY2015,thentheentireincomeshallbeexemptfromtax.
Accordingly, you need to disclose the agricultural income in the income tax return (ITR) 1 form to be compliant from the disclosure
perspective. But if the agricultural income exceeds Rs.5,000, then form ITR 2 applies, which has a separate column for disclosure of
agriculturalincome.
OncetheaforementionedconditionsaresatisfiedthenweshallcomputetheTaxliabilityinthefollowingmanner:
First,includetheAgriculturalincomewhilecomputingyourincomeTaxliability.
Example Let us say that an Individual Assessee has a Total income of INR 7,50,000/ (excluding Agricultural income) and a Net
Agricultural income of INR 100,000/. Then, per this step, Tax shall be computed on INR 7,50,000/ + INR 1,00,000/ = INR 8,50,000/.
Thus,incomeTaxamountasperthisstepshallbeINR95,000/foranindividualwhoisbelowtheageof60YearsduringtheP.Y.201415.
Second,addtheapplicablebasictaxslabbenefit,asapplicable,totheNetAgriculturalincome.Thus,perourexamplementionedabove
we shall add INR 2,50,000/ to INR 1,00,000/ as the applicable Tax slab benefit available to an individual below 60 Years of age is INR
2,50,000/.NowwewillcomputeincomeTaxonINR3,50,000/(Taxslabbenefit2,50,000+NetAgriculturalincome1,00,000).Theamount
ofTaxshallbeINR10,000/.
Third,subtracttheTaxcomputedinSecondstepfromtheTaxcomputedinFirststep=INR85,000/.Thus,thisistheincomeTaxliability
subjecttodeductions,EducationCessetc.,asapplicable.
Thisprocessofcomputationis,however,followedonlyiftheassesseesnonagriculturalincomeisinexcessofthebasicexemptionslab.
Clearly,despiteagriculturalincomebeingtaxexempt,assesseeshavetobecautiouswhiledealingwithsuchincome.Theymustmakesure
thattheyaggregateagriculturalincomewiththeirtotalincometoavoidinterestpaymentsandpossiblepenaltiesforconcealmentofincome.
Assessees must also maintain credible records to provide the tax authorities with proof of ownership of agricultural land and evidence of
havingearnedagriculturalincome.
To conclude, there is enough scope for taxing income from activities which are nonagricultural in nature. In fact, it is well known that
agriculturiststhemselvesdonothavetaxableincome,takingintoaccountthefactthatwhenitisdividedamongstfamilymemberswhoare
involved in agricultural operations, each one of them would have income within the exemption limit. However, there are hundreds of
thousandsofmiddlemenlikewholesalers,retailers,distributors,etc.whoearnsubstantialincomefromtradinginagriculturalproduceaswell
asfruits,flowers,etc.Suchincomeorprofitsarefullytaxableunderthepresentlawand,therefore,ifconcertedeffortsaremadebytheTax
Departmenttorecovertaxfromthem,theneedforwideningthetaxbasetoropeinagriculturistsandfarmers,wouldbeeliminated.

Sometimes, a tenant could slip up on rent or revenue payments (either in cash or kind) and have to pay arrears. If the landlord charges
interestonsucharrears,theincomewouldnotbeconsideredasanagriculturalincome,butwouldbedeemedincomebywayofinterestand
would, hence, be chargeable to tax. While rent presupposes periodical and predetermined payment (either in cash or kind), revenue
