Land registry by cash for income proof

Hi,

I had rececived monies in my bank account as cash deposit in 2012. The monies were received as a result of sale of land agreement, for which registry however did not happen at the time. The It department asked for proof of source. I have submitted iqrarnama copy [agreement] as source which they have rejected as I have lost the original. They have given decesion imparting tax penalty. However, I have done the land registry now showing
1. Sale to family [Wife,Mother] of the buyer mentioned in agreement
2. showing payment in cash  in corresponding year
3. reference to agreement done dated 2012.
Can I re-submit the proof now ? I have entered the appeal process.

You are committing mistake after mistake.  This is because, probably you just do not want to consult professionals before doing an act.

At least now, approach a Lawyer practising Tax laws  or Chartered Accountant with your documents, discuss the matter with him and then act after such consultation.  Yes, it will involve some expenditure towards professional fee.  That is worth spending otherwise you will have to spend after falling into trouble.

Hi R,

Thanks for your reply. I have consulted CA friend and as per his advice the registry is done to validate the agreement and to establ;ish the monies source.

I am in process of hiring a tax lawyer. I just wanted to have some advice regarding the same as my main intention is to provide source of cash deposit and as per advice, land registry would have been the best option. Let me knwo your thoughts.

1. In which year you got the cash deposited into your bank account?

2. On what date the Income Tax Officer passed the Assessment Order?

3. On what date the Income Tax Officer passed the Penalty order?

4. In which year you registered the Sale Deed (based on the cash receipt)?

5. Whether in the Sale Deed, a mention has been made that the consideration was paid by the purchaser by way of cash?

If you had deposited the cash in the year 2009-10, then the matter relates to Assessment Year 2010-11.  

How the AO Will do the Assessment in the year 2017-18 i.e. on 31.12.2017?

Do you mean to say that it was Re-Assessment Order?  Did the notice u/s. 148 alleged suppression / non-disclosure of full and true particulars by you in your return?  If so, what was the date of the Notice u/s. 148?
