Taxability of gift and investment in ppf

the mentioned incomes will be taxable in the hand of the parent whose income is higher under the clubbing provisions

Ms Agarwal is right. The deduction of Rs. 1500/- shall be available on income from minor taxable to parents.

But the gift recieved from such relatives is exempted.., i guess.. And regarding that sister of mother, m sure its already exempted in the hands of reciever...

Just confirm with gift from father of mother.

The gift of 140,000/- is exempt, but the interest earned in PPF and FD shall be taxable to the parents. Therefore the sum 140,000/- is not an income but the interest earned thereupon is taxable with a deduction of upto 1500/-

Interest of PPF is exempt...so no addition to parents income...

Suppose, higher income earner parent is Mother and mother has invested 1,00,000/- in PPF of Mother (So PPF limit is over).. Now minor received gift of Rs. 1 lakh from Mother's father and the same is invested in PPF of Minor.

in my understanding NO Gift tax and no addition as PPF interest is tax free.

plz advise 

Yes, no gift tax and no tax on interest earned in PPF. Interest earned on FD shall be taxable to the mother, who is earning more. The parents can open a PPF in the minor's name with parent's name as the guardian to operate the account, and the parents may make the deposits each year in the account. 

only Interest from FD will be clubbed with income of parent having higher income sub to deduction of Rs 1500.
