Is compensation received for land acquired by govt. taxable?


TDS deducted by your client is different from your tax liability.
Q. Our land was acquired by a central government agency in the year 1962 (actually 1954). The agency paid a small amount after so many years of legal battle. After accepting the amount amid protest, we filed a case again and a lower court gave its verdict. After that, the government agency went to the high court questioning the verdict and the court asked the government to deposit 50% of the amount in the court. Meanwhile, on account of COVID-19, the hearing is in a standstill. My question is whether the amount received as compensation is taxable? For, we have not sold the land. The amount received includes the market price, penalty for not paying in time, and solatium.
