..... land would not be sufficient to accept a claim of agricultural income. However, this argument can be considered only where the agricultural income claimed is of a higher order. It is admitted position that the holding of the assessee was at Sangli, which is a rich sugar belt area in Devanagar. Assessee had also given the details of the agricultural crops which are being raised by it. In such circumstances, on a preponderance of probability, the CIT(A) had allowed the claim.

Ground no.3 of the revenue is allowed for statistical purposes. 15. Vide its ground no.4 grievance of the revenue is that relief was given by CIT(A) even for admitted drawings.
