Fd in name of blood relative
This query is : Resolved
01 September 2018
I am currently one of three working members in a family of four people. My Mother, Father are also working and my younger sister is currently in college. In order to save certain tax liability and to make financial investments, we decided to save money in form of FD in my sisters name.
I wanted to know if that would attract any tax liability? To elaborate further, I have the following specific questions
1. When we transfer money to her account, can that be counted as a Gift ? If not, would that attract any tax liability ?
2. If it does get counted as a Gift, would the income from FD be counted as her income or would that be clubbed with the income of the people who are gifting her that money ?
Our objective was to create FD Interest that comes under less income tax bracket. All three of us (My mother, father and myself) earn more than 10LPA and hence come under 30% tax liability bracket. My sister is older than 18 and hence an adult. I am also clear that at the very minimum, the income generated from the FD would be her income and we would need to pay Tax on that, which we are diligently doing

Clubbing of income clause may apply since the investment money is not a gift to your sister per se but only an arrangement to avoid paying taxes by the rest of the family.

No tax liability over gift from relatives like brother/s or parents.
No clubbing provision in case your sister is 18+ age, The interest will be assessed in her IT account.
