It is not taxable.The person giving gift have to make a gift deed on stamp paper citing the reason of giving gift(i.e, natural love and affection)you can get the text in any book of deeds and agreement.

Any gift from blood relation out of natural love and affection is exempt from Taxation.
However to fulfill legal requirements the person giving you gift will have to make a gift deed on Rs. 100 stamp paper in your favour certifying that he have given the said money/asset to you out of natural love and affection.
Text of gift deed can be refered from any book or notary.
