The ₹15 Lakh gift from the mother is entirely tax-exempt under Section 56(2)(x). Dividend income earned by the NRI son will face 20% TDS at source (or lower under the India-Singapore DTAA if a TRC is provided). For filing the ITR for FY 2026–27, he should use ITR-2 to report the gift under Schedule EI and dividends under Schedule OS to claim any applicable TDS refund.
