08 December 2009 You can show the amount as gift. If amount is small; no gift deed is necessary. For big amount; say 10,000/- plus etc., prepare gift deed on stamp paper.

There is no tax exemption on gifts.

10 December 2009 There is no tax deduction for gifts given to elders dear.... Otherwise everyone will start doing it. And moreover if u give gift(either cash or Kind) to people other than those given in sec56(ii) , of more than Rs.50000 Amount, than the person who received the gift is liable to pay tax on the entire amount.
So be careful dear.
But u can give to your relative any amount as gift but u cannot claim u/s80C, u have to show it as drawings.
