Dear Madhav,
As per Section 56 of Income Tax Act, 1961 Gift will taxable if amount of Gift is more than Rs. 50,000/-
it doesn make any difference
whether it is received in india or from abroad
so it is taxable if amt received is more dan 50000Rs-/
thanks... but r u sure? bcz money is not earned in india. pl give one more serious thought to this issue.
regards, madhav
