However, it is trite law that only the real income is to be subjected to taxation. The appellant or its forefathers must have acquired the land for same consideration and the benefit for cost of acquisition should be allowed for computing the real income of the appellant. It may be mentioned that as per registered valuer report dated 11.01.2016, the FMV of the land as on 01.04.1981, sold by the appellant during the year under consideration, was stated at Rs. 75,000/- per bigha.

In assessee's case, there was no reference regarding the valuation of the property by the Sub-Registrar, Jaipur to any of the higher authorities. The addition is based on the Collector (Stamps) valuation in the case of three bothers of the assessee. In assessee's case the sale consideration of Rs. 10 lacs was accepted by Sub-Registrar -IV, Jaipur. Thus there was no enhancement in assessee's case rather there is no reference to the Collector (Stamps) in assessee's case. It is a settled position of law that Section 50C is a deeming provision and such provisions cannot be invoked when there was no difference in sale consideration declared and value adopted by Registrar or where no reference for valuating full value of consideration of property to Collector (Stamps). For the sake of convenience and brevity of the case, it will be pertinent to mention the provision of Section 50 of the I.T. Act, 1961 as under:- [Special provision for full value of consideration in certain cases. 50C.
