Tax planning with HUF

Tax planning 591 views 2 replies

My wife and I together hold a residential property equally. We are both retired and Sr. citizens.
We now plan to convert the residential property to commercial with the help of bank loan, which will be serviced by my son who is in service (highest tax bracket). I have an HUF account which I wish to utilise to optimise my taxation from rental income in the future.

Need help with designing the structure of the land so that the income can be spread out in the most efficient way and is most tax efficient.

Open to gift deeds, lease deeds, transfers etc.

Is the below a possibility? if not, why?

I split the land 4 way. my wife gifts one part to the son and one part to HUF (I assume there will be no clubbing of income since not a co-parse )

I then gift one part to my son.

What will be the tax implications/ income clubbing implications in this case?

Any other ideas appreciated

Quick Summary
Using HUF for tax planning on self-acquired property has clubbing risks. Gifting/splitting among family may not reduce tax effectively. Alternatives like transferring to son or using LLP/firm can be explored, but require careful tax impact evaluation.

If your goal is pure tax optimization of rental income:

  1. Transfer property fully to son

  2. Or move property into LLP/Firm

  3. Avoid HUF route for self-acquired assets

Thanks for your response. 
How does 1 help? Son is already in highest tax bracket. 

2-  can you elaborate how will this work?

3- any reason you say that?
