Your uncle is not member of your HUF so he is not a relative of your HUF. . Fair Market Value of shares according to Rule 11U or 11UA , will be taxable in the hands of HUF as Income if such FMV exceeds Rs. 50000/-. . For the purpose of computation of capital gains on transfer -Such FMV will be treated as cost of acquisition for the HUF, when such shares will be sold to others. .
