Dear Sirs

I w'd like to know that if I have taken Rs.4 lacs unsecured loan from my relatives (without interest) for too short periond (1-2 months) in my bank account, is it liable to pay tax? and also suggest me rules, T&C for such types of amounts considering IT.

Kindly Suggest!

No tax liability. But it should not be cash deposit....... any banking channel transfer will be OK.

Capability of your relative may be verified. A loan confirmation letter will be required.

Section 56(2)(x) Covers the gift received.
Sub Clause (i) Covers Moneys received as gift, if aggregate amount exceeds Rs. 50,000 it is taxable in the hands of recepient.
However First proviso to section 56(2)(x) exempts gift received from relative.
In your case you are not receiving gift.
On the earning the receiver will pay tax...unsecured loan will not be treated as gift and provisions of clubbing of income will not apply..

This is not liable to tax under IT, provided you have enough supporting document for this loan .
