Quick Summary
Yes, gifts given to a major daughter are generally exempt from income tax under the Income Tax Act, as parents are considered relatives. This exemption applies regardless of whether the daughter is dependent, independent, married, or unmarried. Gifts received from relatives, especially parents, are specifically exempted, with no upper limit specified in this context.
