Please refer section 64(1)(iv). Income from assets trfd to spouse otherwise than for adequate consdiration will be added to the income of the transferor.
In my opinion, tansfering an asset merely by book entry without actually getting it tranfered legally doesn't amt. to valid transfer at all. hence, to the best of my knowledge, interest income can't be transfered this way.
