Sir lets assume Mr X has 2 acres of land . He sold the land for 2 crores . He also pays long term capital gains tax @20 on 2 crs and remits the balance amount to his son's a/c as a gift . My question is , is the son liable to pay income tax personally or not ?

Yes, son fall under the scope of relatives as defined under income tax act, no tax on the hands of relativeon receiving such gift. Hence no tax on son's hand.
