Dear Mr. Raj Kumar Makkad,

If the landlord is no one but charitable trust, please tell me whether the cheque of amount received from pagdi deal is taxable or not because the trust are exempted from income tax payment in case of income from house property.
Raj Kumar Makkad (Expert) 05 December 2012
Such income can be brought under the head income from house property by trust and therefore it can be got exempted from income tax.

Dear Mr. Raj Kumar Makkad,

The trust is registered under public trust act with charity commissioner of state government and not registered under section 12A and 12AA of income tax act? Is that trust still exempted from income tax despite above?
Ravikant Soni (Expert) 08 December 2012
Can it not be treated as security deposit? Think again.
Raj Kumar Makkad (Expert) 08 December 2012
If the same is no registered under Income Tax Act then such exemption is not available to it.
