Section 56(2)(vi) provides that any ‘sum of money’ (in excess of the prescribed limit of `50,000)
received without consideration by an individual or HUF will be chargeable to Income Tax in the
hands of the recipient under the head ‘Income from Other Sources’.
However, receipts of money (a) from relatives or (b) on the occasion of marriage or (c) under a
will or inheritance or (d) in contemplation of death of payee or donor are outside the scope of the
provisions of Section 56(2)(vi) of the Income-tax Act.

Gift received in CASH OR ANY KIND is fully taxable @ flat 30.9% if it's aggregate value exceeds 50000..... Whereas gift is received by an employee from his/her employer then it's value should not exceed Rs 5000
