Morning all, 

My client was married 8 years ago. During marriage he did not get any gifts. Now his relative wants to gift him 10 lakh. Can the client receive it in his HUF and show it as his marriage gift and get away from income tax and it's future incomes? 

 

Thanks

Quick Summary
A query has been raised regarding whether a substantial gift (10 lakh) can be received by an individual in their Hindu Undivided Family (HUF) eight years after their marriage, and if this can be classified as a marriage gift to avoid income tax. The response indicates that it cannot be retrospectively shown as a marriage gift. However, gifts from specified relatives under Section 56(2) of the Income Tax Act are tax-free. Further advice is available if the relative is not specified.

If the relative gifting the sum of money is a specific relative for the purpose of sec 56(2), then the said gift is taxfree. If he is not a specified relative, then pls connect with me for advisory
