Relatives- As regards gift and relatives, the general notion is that the blood relatives come under the purview of Relatives and any gifts received from blood relatives are exempt from tax. This is a misconception and wrong notion.

Relatives are defined in the Income-tax Act, 1961 as under:-

In case of an Individual-

1. Spouse of the individual

2. Brother or sister of the individual

3. Brother or sister of the spouse of the individual

4. Brother or sister of either of the parents of the individual

5. Any lineal ascendant or descendant of the individual

6. Any lineal ascendant or descendant of spouse of the individual

7. Spouse of the person referred in point 2-6 above In case of a HUF- any member thereof.

On the basis of above provision of the Act, list of relatives, who qualify the above parameters, have been prepared for both Male and Female individual recipients of gifts separately for easy understanding. Receipt of any amount of Money/Immovable Property/Other Properties without consideration on any occasion or without any occasion from the relatives mentioned in the following lists are fully exempted from Income Tax.
