As you already said that the funds you received from GOI are tax free (hope you have already confirmed about this issue and applicabilty of this in your case...so will not go into further details ) ... YES you can gift any amount out of this received amount to your wife , gifted amount will be tax free in her hands BUT any income generated out of this gifted amount will be clubbed with your income (IT Act clubbing provision) and will be taxable in your hand only ...
now the twist comes...as you said that you first want to gift the amount to your wife then again she will gift the amount to her sister ...YOU NEED NOT TO DO THIS as your wife`s sister already falls under " relative category " as per section 56 of IT act , so you can gift the amount   directly to her   ...also no income clubbing provision applicable between you and  your wife`s sister  .... win win situation for you....

Highly thankful for valuable guidance
