1. Under the Income Tax Act, an HUF is a separate entity for the purpose of income tax return.
2. The same tax slabs are applicable to HUF as to individual assessee.
3. You can not transfer your own assets/money into HUF.
4. If you have ancestral property and earning some income from this property, then it is better to transfer this asset to HUF and save tax up to exemption limit applicable to individual.
5. You can transfer the money received on sale of ancestral property /assets into your HUF.
6. The income from property of HUF can be further invested in instruments such as shares, mutual funds, etc. and will be assessed under HUF.
7. Existence of property or multiple members is not a pre-requisite to create HUF. A family which does not own any property may still have the character of Hindu joint family. This jointness is understood in terms of faith and food. This is because as a Hindu is born as a member of the joint family.
8. Any gifts received by the members of HUF (birthday, marriage, etc.) can be treated as assets of HUF.
9. The HUF is taxable as separate person under income tax hence one can save tax from basic exemption of Rs. 2.5 lakh. HUF will also gain from the tax slab structure of computing income tax.
10. Apart from basic exemption of Rs. 2.50 lakh, section 80C deduction up to Rs. 1.50 lakh is also available.
11. For example, if you are in 30% tax bracket, then approx tax saving by creating an HUF will be as follows:
- Basic exemption up to Rs. 2,50,000 = nil
- Rs. 2,50,000-5,00,000 @10% = Rs. 25,000
- Rs. 5,00,000-10,00,000 @20% = Rs. 1,00,000
- 80C deductions Rs. 1,50,000
- Therefore total tax payable for HUF on income of Rs. 6,50,000 is only Rs. 25,000.
- If this income of Rs. 6,50,000 is taxed in individual hand @ 30% tax due is Rs. 1,95,000.
- Hence, you can save a total of Rs. 1,70,000 by creating an HUF and transferring ancestral property income and other income under HUF.

hi send me PDF format
100 RS stamp paper
how to huf name creation deed format only
plz
reply…….ans
hi i can assist you in this matter , please contact me on my
e-mail efillingajitesh@gmail.com
We have four floor in a single building and want to gift two floor out of those to HUF,its an ancestry property.
Which format we should use to form an HUF and to gift property in HUF from individual ?
Would it be legal as per Income Tax ?
Is it neccessary to make a deed everytime one makes a deposit into HUF.
For examples,
If my mother gives my HUF account a cheque of eg 2 lacs , Can I deposit it as is or do I need to make a deed to show a proper legitimate transaction.
Again if I have some amount in FD’S which I want to withdraw and deposit into my HUF account , do I need a to make a deed for that OR can i deposit cheque from mine to my HUF ACCOUNT AS IS.
Someone was saying with deed the transaction becomes permanent and we give up rights to that money , which cannot be taken back by us . Without deed it is a temporary transaction where one can take back the money any time and there is no legitimacy in transaction.This is then applicable for tax authorities .
PLEASE ADVISE AS DO NOT UNDERSTAND HOW TO PROCEED.
