Taxation of Gifts for NRIs

Taxability of Gifts Received

Gifts received by NRIs from relatives (such as parents, siblings, etc.) are **exempt from tax** under Section 56(2) of the Income Tax Act. Gifts from non-relatives are taxable if the value exceeds ₹50,000 in a financial year.

Tax on Gifts Given

When gifting assets such as property or money, capital gains tax may apply based on the type of asset and its value.

Gift Tax on Real Estate

If gifting immovable property (land, house), the recipient may need to pay tax on the market value at the time of transfer, depending on the nature of the gift.

Remittance of Gifts Abroad

Gifting money or assets abroad may require compliance with **FEMA (Foreign Exchange Management Act)** and may be subject to tax implications.
