28 September 2013 It can be received. It is taxable above 50,000 hence up to Rs. 50,000 it is tax free and can be received.

17 April 2014 tax received for friends is received from non relative then you have to show in your income. although income tax not tell the taxable income if gift below Rs. 50000/-
but if ITO make question then he in mostly cases he make addition in your income .
