Section 170 | Leases for life, etc.

Where under section 43(3) above a lease of property is to be treated as a settlement, the value of the lessor’s interest in the property shall be taken to be such part of the value of the property as bears to it the same proportion as the value of the consideration, at the time the lease was granted, bore to what would then have been the value of a full consideration in money or money’s worth.
