Can we distribute the corpus funds of Hindu Undivided Family (HUF) two times when the Karta dies?

In case of HUF, when Karta dies whether the corpus fund can be distributed among his wife and 2 sons before the receipt of refund or both the amount shall be distributed together after the receipt of the refund i.e. whether HUF can distribute the corpus fund two times

There is no legal provision for "two-time" distribution. Under current Income Tax laws, only a total partition is recognized. A partial partition is generally disregarded for tax purposes. It is advisable to settle all outstanding tax matters (including receiving refunds) before executing a total partition deed to avoid future tax liabilities and administrative disputes.
