No problem for your IT Return and as nephew is not relative as per definition of Income tax, it is taxable in the hands of Nephew if market value of such property exceeds Rs.50,000 as Income from other sources. If Donee is relative as per IT Rules it will affect your IT return as Income arise from such gift will be taxable in the hands of Transferor.
dear expert , he is my sister's son . doesn't he come under relative ?
if market value of property is 30 laks then how to compute tax ?
Give a PoA to your nephew to take care of the property on your behalf if you cannot maintain that property.
mihir sir :: i have decided to gift him , now i dont want to hold it .
and
he is my sister's son . doesn't he come under relative ? if market value of property is 30 laks then how to compute tax ?
The following parties are come under the definition of relative as per IT Rules
1)Spouse of the Individual
2)Brother or sister of spouse or individual
3) Any Lineal ascendant or Lineal Discendant of Individual
4)Any Lineal ascendant or Lineal Discendant of spouse of the Individual
5)Spouse of such Lineal ascendants or descendants
If you write POA to your nephew still you will have a tax implication that transfer of income with out transfer of asset will attract clubbing provisions. If there will be no income out of such gift then no problem if you write Power of Attorney(POA) to your nephew
Or you may gift the property in favor of your sister. Sister is a relative as per IT Act. There will be no tax on this transaction. Nephew is not a relative. Selling the property to the nephew will attract LTCG in your hands, and you will have to receive from him price not less than stamp value of the property.
Hello,
Not agree with Mihir & Ayyappa
It will not be taxable in his(nephew) hand.
Relatives means
- Spouse of Individual
- Brother & Sister of Individual
- Brother & Sister of Spouse of Individual
- Brother & Sister of either of the parents of Individual
- Any Lineal ascendants or descendants of the individual
-Any Lineal ascendants or descendants of the spouse of the individual.
Brother & Sister (YOU) of either of the parents of Individual (NEPHEW). dat y it ll not be taxable in ur nephew's hand.
Clubbing provision not apply
Section 62 in the Income- Tax Act, 1995 (Irrevocable Transfer of Assets)
Where an asset is transferred to any person
1. by way of trust which is not revocable during the lifetime of the beneficiary, OR
2. in the case of any other transfer, which is not revocable during the lifetime of the transferee; then all income arising from such asset, shall be included in the income of the transferee and not in the income of the transferor. This shall apply only if the transferor derives no direct or indirect benefit from such income in either case.
I agree with Mr.vishal, gift from maternal/paternal uncle is not taxable.. Only when the gift is given by nephew to his uncle it is taxable in hands of uncle.
However income from such property will be clubbed in hands of donor in both the cases.
I need a citation for gift exempted from Income tax when it is given by Uncle to his Nephew? Please, it is an urgent one.
