This query is : Resolved

Quick Summary

This discussion clarifies whether a property received as a gift from a father's sister (Bua) and her husband (Fufa) is taxable under Indian Income Tax. According to Section 56(2)(x) of the Income Tax Act, 1961, gifts received from specified relatives are exempt from tax. Since a father's sister and her husband fall under the definition of 'relative', the gifted immovable property in this case is not taxable.
