Quick Summary

Gifting property to a trust registered under Section 12AA of the Income Tax Act generally incurs no tax liability for either the individual donor or the trust itself. However, if the trust is not registered under 12AA, the trust will be liable for tax. Section 56(2)(x) of the Income Tax Act is relevant in determining taxability.
