No justification in the claim of assessee to consider the sale value of impugned property at ₹ 16 lakhs in the peculiar facts and circumstances of the present case.

..... on the basis of AIR information that the assessee had sold an immovable property at a sale consideration of ₹ 37 lakhs. The information so received was supplied to the assessee and the assessee was asked to file the computation of capital gains on sale of property.

CIT(A), where on the request of assessee he referred the valuation of impugned property to the Valuation Cell and the AVO filed his report determining the fair market value of the property at ₹ 34,00,000/-.

In presence of these facts, there remains nothing to say on behalf of the assessee to considering the sale consideration of property at ₹ 16,00,000/- for further computing the capital gain of the said property .....
