Quick Summary
This discussion clarifies the limits on gifting money to a married daughter via bank transfer in the UK. While there's no explicit monetary limit for gifts from parents, it's advisable to declare significant amounts as exempt income on your daughter's tax return. This helps prevent potential scrutiny later on, even though gifts are capital receipts and not taxable income themselves.

No limit.
No limit

There is no limit. But it is advisable to show the money as exempt income in the return of your daughter, if the amount is significant.

Gift is capital receipt. It is not income. No, you should not show under Exempt income. 

I think this is basically to avoid scrutiny at a latter stage. There are several news articles where it is mentioned that it is advisable to disclose in the return.
