03 September 2012 It will not make any difference whether you receive via cheque or via cash , but for safer side we prefer to get gift via cheque with a Gift Deed.and further the gift received from specified relatives is exempt.

06 September 2012 Gift received from father is exempt from Income Tax whether it is by way of cash or cheque, subject to genuineness of transaction, source of amount gifted, availability of fund for gift etc.

10 September 2012 It is exempt u/s 56(2)(vii) of the Income Tax Act.
