yes it is taxable if the value of gift exceeds rs.50000.because the benefit u/s 56 is applied only when gift is received on the occasion of the marriage of the individual

Hi Friendz,
Nice discussion...........!
I think in the present case two questions needs to be answered.
First a question of fact - "Whether Gifts received were ACTUALLY meant for the OCCASION of marriage or not? - So lets not focus on this cos this will vary from case to case.
Second a question of Law - "OCCASION" - is it related to "OCCURENCE OF AN EVENT ONLY" or "occurence of an event AT A POINT OF TIME"
I am not very sure but would like to go with the first one so it will be exempt....

Hi,
Good discussion going on..
I want to know what is the relevance of time of receipt of gift (means other than unreasonable lapse of time), how can it be established at the time of assessment that gift was received after 30 days of marriage(if it is in same A.Y) if one claims that it is on date of marriage. i.e whether bill has to be produced which is not possible.
So, as per my view a reasonable period around the occurrence of event will be easily taken as the exempted gift i.e the gift is on account of the event.
thanx

If Gift received in cash is more than 50000/- than the whole amount of Gift will be taxable.
From A Y 2010-2011 Gift received in kind is also taxable if its value is more than 50000/-

here in income tax provisions it's clearly stated that
on the occasion of the marriage of the individual;
now the word occasion means
the day in which the marriage was
so after the one month it's taxable
but practically
gift par dates kaha hoti hai
whenever you received the gifts you can raise that it's on the date of occasion of the marriage and when the you need the invoice you can get from you frend

The sec 56(2)(vi) deals with the gift received in cash &
The new sec. 56(2)(vii) is inserted w.e.f 1.10.2009 deals with gift received in kinds(like shares, immovable properties etc.).
