In this article, we will emphasis on the applicability of income tax laws on the gifts (movable or immovable) received by an individual from any person.
Provisions of section 56(2)(vii) have application to ‘property’ which is in nature of a capital asset of recipient and, thus, when assessee purchased a piece of land as stock-in-trade, the addition made by AO in respect of the purchase of land by invoking provisions of section 56(2)(vii)(b)(ii), was to be set aside.
In our view, the said Section can be applied if there is a transfer of shares in favour of a Firm or a Company. For the transfer of shares, we agree with the assessee that there must be a transferor and transferee and transferred assets i.e., shares. In the case of amalgamation, it cannot be said that there is a transfer of shares as there is only statutory vesting of the assets by virtue of the Scheme.

As per current Income Tax provisions, if a closely-held company i.e. a company in which public is not substantially interested, issues shares at a price which is more than its fair market value (FMV), then the excess amount i.e. excess of issue price over fair market value will be taxed as income from other sources in the hands of the company.
Angel tax means the tax payable by unlisted companies during the raising of capital wherein the share price exceeds the fair market price of the share sold. The tax was initially conceptualized in the 2012 Union Budget by then finance minister Pranab Mukherjee with an endeavour to curtail the flow of illegitimate laundering of funds.
