The Correct Option is D

Solution and Explanation

Section 2 of the Income-tax Act contains key definitions; Section 2(24) provides an inclusive definition of "income" that spans profits, dividends, perquisites, winnings, capital gains, and several deemed receipts. Sections 3 and 10E deal with different aspects (charge/other provisions). Therefore, the correct reference for the definition is 2(24).
