25 June 2011 Assets received by way of inheritance will be added to your capital a/c in the liability side of your Balance Sheet and to the respective a/c in the assets side of the Balance sheet. No tax is payable for inheritance.

25 June 2011 Mr. Sridhar,

As has been stated by you that you have received from your Dad's Account. I presume that these shares were transferred to you when your Dad was alive. Hence, this cannot be treated as inheritance.

You have to disclose who are other members of the family and what has happened to other assets belonging to your father.

Anyhow in none of the cases the Income shall be treated and taxed in your hand. A father can give gift at any point of time to his son. So, treat this as gift and add to your capital account by showing Gift of shares from father. On assets side you show investment in shares as assets.
