Lady received cash from property sale and got tax notice for unexplained income; ITAT ruled in her favour on this ground

The ITAT Mumbai has ruled that cash received from a property sale cannot be treated as unexplained income if backed by proper records. However, this case involved a property sale in FY 2014-15 (AY 2015-16), when Section 269SS didn't cover property sale cash. Since FY 2015-16, stricter cash restrictions apply to property transactions.
