I think no...

As per definition of relatives not covered for above said relationship...
mother of ur spouse falls under relative definition
it's exempt..... cause of we see from the perspective of mother in-law , daughter in law is spouse of her lineal ascendent ... there for gift is received by the relative hence not taxable
Yes agreed with views..........
Above said Mother in Law and Daughter in law not under the definition of Relatives...

Any one have detailed definition then can explain here...
RAJA P M sir the definition of relative under section 56(2) includes lineal ascendent and their spouses ... therefore for mother in law her son's wife would be a relative ... hence gift would not be taxable .
