Income Tax calculation in Gifted Mutual Fund


This query is : Resolved 

Quick Summary
This discussion clarifies the tax implications when gifting mutual funds. The original buyer (person X) does not pay tax on the capital gains at the time of the gift. However, when the recipient (the wife) eventually sells the mutual fund, the tax liability on the capital gains will be calculated based on the original purchase price and the selling price. The concept of 'clubbing of income' means the husband may be liable for this tax, not the wife.
