I wish to transfer a lump sum amount received by virtue of my PF and gratuity on my retirement to my wife. So I wish to know, is the amount transferred from my pf and gratuity to my wife on retirement taxable? If so under which provision? Is it true that the PF and gratuity is not taxable in my hands on retirement? Is it wise to distribute the amount received during retirement among the spouse and son for tax exemptions?

Dear Friends, I have a practical issue. If I paid interest on Partners capital in FY 2005-2006, then is it necessary to pay it in 2006-07 also. Case is wrt exempted areas, and hence the AO objecting is that we are inflating profits and hence disallowing that much amount. I want to know the legal points involved in this matter.
