Tax liability on gift amount to wife through my son

This query is : Resolved 

26 October 2024 Sir, my question is
If I transfer the money through gift deed to my son and then my son transferred that amount to his mother (to my wife account) through gift deed then :-
1. Is it legally OK?
2. The income incurred by my wife on that amount will be accounted her income?
3.Will tax authority will inquire from my son and my wife from where they received amount, if the amount will be more than 10 or 20 lacs
4. I retired from govt job and I want to save tax, so I want to transfer the amount in my wife who is housewive and my son's account whose income is between 5 to 7 lacs.

5. Sir I filed ITR for FY 23-24 according to form 16 as issued by my employer and I got confirmation from IT Deptt u/s 143(1)which confirm that their is no tax liability and ITR is OK. After filing ITR my employer generate revised form 16 in which my income is less than as previous form 16 and as per revised form 16 no tax liability has increased.
My question is..
1. Should revised ITR to be filed as their is no changes in tax liability (in previous form 16 Part A they show my leave in cashment 23 lacs instead of 11.50 lacs and they modified in revised form 16 Part A)
Thanks sir and waiting expert advise

You mean that they can inquire, even it is digital transfer and the money I received from govt employer on my superannuation in April 2023.

26 October 2024 The query for source of funds cannot be denied, but in your case you can produce the proof of its authenticity, being tax paid capital.
