Tax Slab Rate Applicable.

As per the Income tax act, the Gifts received from any of your relatives are fully exempt from tax. Whether you are received the gifts as Cash, Cheque or any goods. You are not liable to pay the tax for these gifts.

But Mr Raj C Doshi as per my knowledge gift received in cash or kind is taxable above the limit of Rs.50000. Please correct me.

Gift received from other then relatives is taxable us 56 of incometax act.

As per sec 56 (2) of income tax act, any sum of money or kind received from relatives is not taxable whatever the amount is. 

There is no limit specified for gift from relatives.  Whether its 100000 or 1000000.

I hope i have solved your query.

Thanx everyone.

Agree With Raj, Sumit & Surbhi..
