Thinking of giving or receiving a gift? First, read this!
👉 Gifts up to ₹50,000 from non-relatives are completely tax-free.
But if it’s above ₹50,000, the entire amount becomes taxable as per your income tax slab.
💡 But here’s the best part…
If the gift is from any of these 7 close relatives, there’s NO TAX at all, no matter how big the amount:
Spouse
Parents
Siblings
Spouse’s parents/siblings
Your children's spouses
Grandparents
Grandchildren
✅ So, if your mom or brother gifts you ₹5 lakh — it’s 100% tax-free!
But if a friend gives you ₹60,000 — then the entire ₹60,000 is taxable.
⚠️ Before celebrating that surprise gift, be sure you’re not surprising the Income Tax Department too!
