Quick Summary
Receiving money or assets through a will is generally exempt from income tax in the UK, as inheritance falls outside the scope of the Income Tax Act. However, if you inherit assets like stocks or securities and subsequently sell them, any profit made will be subject to capital gains tax, either short-term or long-term depending on the holding period.

Not taxable
Provided the amount is out of taxed amount or exempted amount
Exempt
Inheritance law is exempted from income tax act.
But if you have inherited any stocks and securities and the same is sold, capital gains either short term or long term .
