02 July 2013 I need clarification upon the captioned item.
If a lady receives a particular sum, say Rs. 10 lacs, from her in laws for being agreed to divorce her husband;
1. Whether the same will be taxable in her hand as income?
2. If yes, under which provision of Income Tax Act?
3. Whether the lady would be wrong in treating the said amount as Capital Receipt?
Please offer your valuable suggestions.
