The case of the assessee was selected for scrutiny and notice u/s. 143(2) was issued to the assessee on 18-08-2010.

They had their agricultural land and live stock in their native village. The other two brothers of the assessee who stayed back were managing the agricultural land and live stock of the assessees. The assessee decided to dispose off their joint agricultural property along with live stock. There were some shesham trees on the agricultural land. The assessees separately sold standing crop and shesham trees before disposing of agricultural land. The assessees also sold their live stock.
