for the AY 07-08 she is in India only for 177 days. Therefore she is a non Resident. But income is generated(Deemed to accrue or arise) from India. So she would be liable for tax u/s 9(1)(i).

I guess(Not to sure)she would be charged at a normal tax slab rate for woman during that particular assessment year.Because the section does not mention any rate in specific.

and ya non residents are not liable for any exemptions like 80C and stuff . But 10(34) is allowed.

ok .... Gift from Husbands friends would be taxable above the exempt limit.... Rent receipts less Standard deduction and less Interest on loan taken.. I think that would get the answer.
