help me with gift tax

Others 1244 views 5 replies

my sister is 19 yrs old an engineering student. She got a prize /gift in a lucky draw a TVS pep which costs Rs.36,000.

We thought that amount of scooty is less than 50,00 so we are not liable to pay any tax...........but now those authorities are asking us to pay a gift tax of 30% on the price of Scooty.

can anyone help me with this?? Are we liable to pay tax?

It is not an transfer between two parties . This transaction is liable for tax at flat rate at 30% because the scooty is obtained by winning a lottery show or some sort of game. As per income tax act a person has to remit the tax called as Tax deducted at source and the tax rate is 30% so the authorities who has asked for the tax are correct.

1)gift from mother is tax free 2)gains on selling ancestral property is subject to capital gain and tax thereon, but indexing benefit is available,
