2016 (4) TMI 480 - HC - Income TaxAddition on account of capital gain on the basis of valuation of asset by DVO - ITAT deleted the addition - Held that:- Section 50C of the Act is a special provision for full value of consideration in some cases. What the section provides is that if any land or building or both are transferred at a value less than the value adopted or assessed or assessable by the stamp valuation authority, the value adopted or assessed or assessable by the stamp valuation authority shall be considered to be the full value of the consideration received or accruing as a result of such transfer. Thus, the condition precedent for resorting to the provisions of sub-section (1) of section 50C of the Act is that the land or building should have been transferred for a lesser consideration than that adopted or assessed or assessable by the stamp valuation authority. Adverting to the facts of the present case, undisputedly the valuation made by the assessee exceeds the value adopted by the stamp valuation authority. The condition precedent for invoking sub-section (1) of section 50C of the Act is, therefore, clearly not satisfied. Consequently, there was no question of referring the valuation of the plots in question to the Valuation Officer. The impugned order passed by the Tribunal being in consonance with the provisions of sub-section (1) of section 50C of the Act, does not suffer from any legal infirmity so as to give rise to any question of law, much less, a substantial question of law. - Decided against revenue
