Relinquishment of Trustship Rights Deemed Taxable Under Section 56 as Income from Other Sources

May 26, 2025

Case Laws     Income Tax     AT

ITAT determined the nature of receipts from relinquishment of trustship rights in Carmel Education Trust. After analyzing the income classification, the tribunal concluded that the amount does not fall under the first four heads of income and is consequently taxable under the residual head "income from other sources" per Section 56. The Assessing Officer initially treated the receipt as unexplained income, but the ITAT definitively classified it as taxable under the income from other sources category. The appellate tribunal dismissed the assessee's appeals, affirming the taxability of the relinquishment proceeds as income from other sources.
