Gift tax payable from relatives


This query is : Resolved 

Quick Summary
This discussion clarifies whether a gift received from a mother's sister's son (a cousin) is subject to gift tax. Initially, there was confusion regarding the definition of 'relative' for tax purposes. The consensus reached is that a cousin is not considered a relative under the relevant tax act, meaning such a gift would indeed be taxable.
