Quick Summary
This discussion explores the tax implications of gifting a residential property to one's eldest daughter, who proposes to gift money to her siblings in return. While gifts between close relatives are generally tax-exempt under the Income Tax Act, stamp duty considerations, particularly in Maharashtra, are also highlighted. Stamp duty for intra-family residential property gifts is nominal (Rs 200), a change introduced in 2017.

As per Income tax act, all such transfers will be tax exempt, as the gifts from relatives are non-taxable u/s. 56(2) IT act.

BETTER YOU MAKE WILL AND LET THEM DEVIDE AFTER YOU.

appoint  the sole executor of  Will to do all that is necessary to administer and give full and complete effect to this Will as per YOUR wish.

TAX POINT OF VIEW 

The stamp duty on gift deed in Maharashtra is 3% of the property’s value, as per Article 34 of the Maharashtra Stamp Act. However, if the property is gifted within the family (to husband, wife, son, daughter, grandson, grand-daughter, or wife of a deceased son), the stamp duty is Rs 200 for residential or agricultural properties. This amendment was introduced in 2017.
