My wife received money from my father in law. She did a fixed deposit on which income was generated. sh has a PAN no. Can she file income tax return in her name.
No, 64(1) (vi) doesn't apply since transaction is between father and daughter.
@Questioner
If the income including the interest on FD > the basic exemption limit she has to necessarily file return. On the other hand, if her income < the exemption limit and tax is deducted from interest, then also she has to file the return seeking refund.
