Rallis India Ltd v Additional CIT [IT APPEAL NO. 2464 (MUM.) OF 2010] (Mumbai ITAT) Background: The assessee-company declared short term capital gains on sale of flats u/s. 50 of the Act. Out of the flats sold, a flat was sold for a consideration of Rs. 1,65,00,000. The AO addressed a letter, u/s. 50C of the Income Tax Act, to Joint Sub-Registrar, Department of Stamp and Registration, Worli to furnish the value adopted by the Stamp Valuation Authority. The Joint Sub-Registrar informed that the stamp value of the said property was Rs. 1,86,01,380/-. Since section 50C of the Act speaks of the value adopted for stamp duty purposes, the addition of Rs. 21,01,380/- was made by the AO and the same was confirmed by learned CIT(A).
