Taxation about amount received from father

Hi Dr. Anand Wadadekar 

No. If the above income, your father paid tax and then transferred the income to you mean not taxable. 

As per sec 56(2)(vii) of IT Act, gift received from a relative is not taxable u/h 'Income from other sources'

so you can avoid paying tax on 8.5 lakh if you show it as gift received from a relative-father.

Gift Received from relatives i.e. father is not taxable as rightly pointed out by Ms. Shiny. It is considered as a capital receipt and need not be shown in ITR at all. IT is not clear what incomes are you earning apart from salary. If it is only salary & bank interest then you need to file ITR1
