Dear Mr. Patil,

If you have incone from agriculture activities, all that income will be taxfree. However, you have to categorise which income is eligible for agriculture income. Will surely check and revert to you.

Service tax registration may be required if you are also providing services.

Thanks and regards

Dear sir,

Based on your list of nature of business your following income shall be 100% tax free

- Dairy Farming

- Goat Farming

- Fruit Plantation

With respect to other legal registration following details required :

- Registration with local agriculture society

- Registration with Sales Tax Department

- Commercial business registration certificate

- Service Tax Certificate

and other registration based on your transactions list.

Also you will be eligible for many local as well as central subsidy and for the said purpose you need to get yourself registered.

Hello Mr. Patil,

You might have heard that income received from Agricultural business is exempt but technically its not. Some part of your agricultural income gets taxed if you have any source of income other than Agricultural Income.

Other than PAn, TAN you may also need a Fire Licence, Food License, Insurance for your Cattle, PT numbers for the Directors to start with.

Trust this clarifies your query.

Feel free to get back/ call back in case of further details.

Thanking You.
