2. In case my minor daughter earned cash prize of Rs.75000 in stage dance show etc, in whose hands will the same be taxable- myself, my spouse or my minor daughter.

Any cash gift received in excess of Rs 50000/- is taxable.In your case since Rs 40000/- is received by your minor child it wont be taxable,though it is received from a distant relative.
