Pension received by a family member is taxed under income from other sources. If this pension is commuted or is a lump sum payment it is not taxable. Uncommuted pension received by a family member is exempt to a certain extent. Rs 15,000 or 1/3rd of the uncommuted pension received -whichever is less is exempt from tax.

I guess you guys are asking about the Widow Pension which is being given by Govt under Welfare Schemes. If that is the case then you must know that that Widow Pension is first very less (I think Rs. 300/- per month) and second it is given to only that person who is Below poverty line. So there is NO QUESTION OF TAX ARISE.

Second thing if asking about the Normal Employee Pension which is being received by his Widow after his death then it would be cover under her INCOME FROM OTHER SOURCE head income and would be Chargable to tax NORMALLY. Further a Deduction of Rs. 15,000/- OR 1/3rd of Total Uncommuted pension recd during the Year, Whichever is Less Shall be Exempt.
If Commuted pension is being received by Employee's Widow then it would be EXEMPT in her hand fully.

Thanks. Be Helpful to One Another!
