10 November 2013 What do mean by Huf?when can a family take the benefit of Huf Is Muslim undivided family can take the benefit of Huf?

10 November 2013 to understand HUF: http://taxguru.in/income-tax/taxation-of-hindu-undivided-family-huf-and-family-arrangement.html

No a muslim, Christian, jew etc cannot form a HUF. Jains/ Sikhs etc though can as they emanate from Hinduism.

For what constitute a Hindu, you may refer to Hindu laws, such as Hindu Succession Act, Section 2:

"....(a) to any person, who is a Hindu by religion in any of its forms or developments including a
Virashaiva, a Lingayat or a follower of the Brahmo, Prarthana or Arya Samaj;

(b) to any person who is Buddhist, Jaina or Sikh by religion; and

(c) to any other person who is not a Muslim, Christian, Parsi or Jew by religion unless it is proved that any such person would not have been governed by the Hindu law..."
