Commr. Of Agrl. I.T. vs Pullangode Rubber & Produce Co. Ltd. on 30 August, 1968

5. The crux of the reasoning of the Appellate Tribunal to hold that the said amount of Rs. 3,95,229 did not-constitute receipt by way of income in the hands of the assessee was that the business of the assessee consists in growing rubber trees and utilising the latex from the trees and not the sale of rubber trees, and as per the decision of the Supreme Court in Commr. of Agrl. I.T. v. Kailas Rubber and Co. Ltd. [1966] 60 ITR 435, the sale of old and unyielding rubber trees would result in a capital receipt in the hands of the seller, and, in this background, amounts received by way of earnest money and advance towards the sale price to be adjusted as and when the contracts were concluded cannot be said to be amounts received by the assessee as trading receipts. At the time when the amounts were received, they were not trading receipts and the mere fact that, by a subsequent event, namely, by the breach of the contract, the assessee could appropriate the amount would not render the receipts as revenue receipts.

Before us, counsel for the Revenue placed strong reliance on the following decisions and contended that the amounts received by way of earnest money and advance would be entered only in a suspense account when received and it could be carried forward to the regular account only when the purchaser did not carry out the terms of the contract. It is then, after the accrual, that the first receipt arose. In this case, the first receipt after the accrual of the income arose only when the intending purchaser did not carry out the terms of the contract. At that point of time, the said amount received by way of earnest money and advance forfeited, can only be a revenue receipt. Strong reliance was placed on the following decisions : B.M. Kamdar, In re [1946] 14 ITR 10 (Bom) at p. 39 ; Keshav Mills Ltd. v. CIT [1953] 23 ITR 230, 242 (SC) ; Smt. Tarulata Shyam v. CIT [1977] 108 ITR 345, 350 (SC) and Raghuvanshi Mills Ltd. v.
