Does gifts received from specified relatives

Gifts from relatives are capital receipt or

Is there any caselaw regarding this.
Does section 10 of income tax shows that
Gifts from relatives as exempted income.

As per the Income tax act, the Gifts received from any of your relatives are fully exempt from tax. Whether you are received the gifts as Cash, Cheque or any goods. You are not liable to pay the tax for these gifts.
Here the “relatives” term defines by the Income Tax act as follows :
Spouse of the individual
Brother or sister of the individual
Brother or sister of the spouse of the individual
Brother or sister of either of the parents of the individual
Any lineal ascendant or descendant of the individual
Any lineal ascendant or descendant of the spouse of the individual, Spouse of the person referred to in clauses (ii) to (vi).

Agreed with the expert. In addition i just want to tell you that gifts received are revenue receipts which are exempted from tax if received from relatives.
