can a mother in law give gift to a daughter in law and is it exempt from income tax.

please tell me in detail.

Thanking you

15 December 2015 Gift amount is not taxable but the income arising to "Bahu-Daughter-in-law" from the amount gifted will be clubbed in the income of " Saas-Mother-in-Law" by virtue of Section 64(1)(vi).
