26 April 2013 I am giving a gift of Gold Jewellery worth Rs. 5 Lacs to my sister. is it necessary for us to execute a Gift Deed.
I am asking from tax point of view, whether absence of gift deed would cause any future trouble to my or my sister like scrutiny etc.

26 April 2013 Would not lead to any trouble

but taking it through a gift deed makes it more genuine

and also its a documentary evidence

Note : Also Financial statements are to be considered only gift deeds does not make the person capable for gifting
