Gift

This query is : Open 
Quick Summary
In the UK, cash gifts received from relatives are generally not taxable under Section 56(2)(vii) of the Income-Tax Act. While a grandmother-in-law might not always be explicitly defined as a 'relative', any gift up to £50,000 is typically exempt from tax. In this case, the gift is considered exempt as it falls within this limit and the grandmother-in-law is covered under the definition of a relative.
