Gift received in cash or in kind is not taxable for companies, it is applicable only for individual and HUF

Deduction would be allowed to the company only if such gift is in relation to the business of the company.

 I support Mr.D.Dhananjaya,

In accordance with the newly amended Sec.56(2)(VII) in the Finn.Act 2009 it has been clearly notified that a Gift in Cash or Kind will be taxable received in excess of Rs.50000.00.

As per clause (a) : Cash received as Gift by an Individual/HUF in excess of Rs.50000 will be taxable in hands of Gift receiver.

Clause (b) : Gift of Immovable property : If received without consideration & if SVA value exceeds Rs.50000 then such amt of SVA will be taxable in the hands of gift receiver.

If received against consideration & SVA exceeds the consideration by Rs.50000 or more, then such (SVA - Consideration) will be taxable.

Aggegation not be done, specific assets to be considered

Clause (c) : Movable property -- Shares,Securities,Jewellery

If received without consideration & if FMV value exceeds Rs.50000 then such amt of FMV will be taxable in the hands of gift receiver.

If received against consideration & FMV exceeds the consideration by Rs.50000 or more, then such (FMV - Consideration) will be taxable.

Aggergated value to be considered.

If Sec.56(2)(VII) gets applicable then Sec.49(4) shall be applicable for CG charged for transfer bt Gift receiver consequesntly.

Not applicable for Gifts from reletive..

Completely Agree with u

 yup its taxable

yeh it is taxable.....

Only taxable if the amount received as gift is above the threshold limit of Rs.50,000/-. If the amount is above the above stated limit the full amount will be taxable.

Taxable as Other Income If Cash is received.

Taxable as Capital Gains if received in kind.

NOTE : Rs.50,000/- should not be assumed as a basic slab for deduction from gift income !

gift received in cash or kind is taxable only for an individual or a HUF, if the gift received during a financial year  exceeds Rs.50000/-

Sec 28 has a clause(iv) which says "VALUE OF ANY BENEFIT OR PERQUISITE WHETHER CONERTIBLE INTO MONEY OR NOT AS A RESULT OF CARRYING ON THE BUSINESS OR PROFESSION" thus gift received by a Company will be covered u/s 28 and hence taxable...Even if it does not exceed Rs. 50k it will still be taxable in case of companies..

Whether The Company giving the gift will get deduction or not?? Answer lies in the Condition of Sec 37(1) that "THE EXPENDITURE MUST BE INCURRED FOR THE PURPOSE OF BUSINESS OR PROFESSION"
