PLEASE TELL ME A GOVERMENT EMPLOYEE WIFE, GIVE TO HER HUSBAND ON RETIRMENT. FOR TAX SAVING PURPOSE.
Although Sec 61 states that income from irrevocable transfer of asset shall not be clubbed in the hands of transferor , in case Transfer to Spouse Sec 64(1)(iv) shall prevail over Sec 61 . Even if irrevocable transfer of asset has been made to the spouse as gift, the income from such irrevocable transfer to the spouse shall be clubbed in the hands of transferor in above case.

Mr DK Mulla,
1. If your taxable income after all deductions is Rs 260000/-. There won't be any tax for you as income upto 250000/- is exempt and then there is rebate u/s 87A.
2. there will not be any tax on Rs 60000/- gifted to wife as you have to 1st consider the whole 2.6 L for taxation and then gift to her out of it.
3. If she invests the amount of rs 60000/-in say fixed deposits or other investments, and earnes interest of say Rs 6000/-, that interest will be clubbed with your income.
