31 July 2012 According to sec 56(2), if aggregate sum of money received by individual or HUF does not exceed Rs. 50000, then it is exempt, so amouns received by your sons on birthday party shall not be clubbed with your income cz it is not taxable in your minor hand.

The logic is if it is not taxable in individual/ HUF's hand, then it will not taxable in minor's hand, and therefore clubbing provisions are not applicable.

Hope your query is resolved.
