Taxability of Amount Received in Bank Account

This query is : Resolved

Quick Summary

If you receive money from friends, it's generally considered taxable if the total amount exceeds Rs. 50,000. In this case, receiving Rs. 7.5 Lakhs from friends means the entire sum is likely taxable under the Income From Other Sources (IFOS) head, even if part was returned or spent.

31 January 2020 It will be treated as gift and If in aggregate the gift amt exceeds rs 50000 than whole amt is taxable under head IFOS.
Hence whole 7.5 lack is taxable.
