Section 10 (1) exempts agricultural income from rural areas exempt from tax. from A.Y.2014-15 the definition of Rural Area has been modified. It depends on the population of that Muncipality.
From Assessment year 2014-2015 Rural area means
Any area which is outside the jurisdiction of a municipality or cantonment board having a population of 10,000 or more is considered Rural Area, if it does not fall within distance(to be measured aerially) given below –
