As per section 27 the income from such house property will be the income of minor married daughter. However, as per section 64(1A) income of minor (including minor married daughter also) shall be clubbed in the hands of either of parents whose total income excluding such income is greater.
Therefore the income from such house property will be clubbed u/s 64(1A) and taxable in the hands of father/mother as the case may be.
