Quick Summary
This discussion clarifies whether an income tax return is necessary when receiving a £11 lakh gift via cheque from a grandfather, with no other income. While gifts from relatives are generally exempt under Section 56 of the Income Tax Act 1961, filing ITR 2 is advisable for clarity. The gift being paid by cheque from a taxed source (the grandfather) further supports its exemption.
In the case of gift , you do not need to file your income tax return. bcz your grand father pay you by cheque and this amount already taxed by your grandfather. Gift under relatives is totally exempted. see section 56 of income tax act 1961.
