Section 56(2)(vii) provides that gifts received by individual & HIF are taxable if the aggregate amount of gifts during the year exceed Rs. 50,000.

HOWEVER, gifts received from relatives are EXEMPT.

Therefore, gift received by an individual from his daughter-in-law is exempt in the hnds of the individual.

There is no limit. The WHOLE amount shall be exempt.

The gift can be in cash or through cheque.

However, if the gift is in cash, the daughter-in-law should be able to substantiate the source of the gift.
