Since the agency is in the name of your wife, the commission received is her income. She would have to pay tax on it and will have to show it in her ITR as income from other sources.
The amount transferred to father in law can be shown as gift from his daughter which will then not be taxable in his hands. As such, the wife cannot claim any benefit on amount transferred to her father.
