05 December 2012 Thanks Sidhartha and Sanket

One more query is that if cash gift is not received from relative person then it will be taxable or not?

05 December 2012 1. Gifts received from relatives is EXEMPT (whether on the occasion of marriage or otherwise).

2. Gifts received from non-relatives on the occasion of marriage is exempt.

3. Gifts received from non-relatives otherwise than on the occasion of marriage are exempt if the aggregate amount of gifts during the year does not exceed Rs. 50,000

If it exceeds Rs. 50,000, then ALL the gifts are taxable.

Please read Section 56(2)(vii) of the Income Tax Act.

05 December 2012 Previously, cash gifts of up to Rs 50,000 were tax free. However, if the gift was more than Rs 50,000, then the entire amount was taxed.

Under the new law, any gift received in cash or kind exceeding Rs.50,000 or purchase of movable or immovable property for inadequate payment is taxed in the hands of recipient as “income from other sources.”
