In our view, no law prevents such a lump sum payment by a husband to his wife in lieu of her maintenance for the whole life. In the proviso to section 56(2)(vi) any sum received from a relative is exempt from tax. In the definition of relative, the receipt from whom is exempt under the Act, inter alia not only the spouse but the brother and sister of the spouse have also been included.

In its written submission on behalf of the assessee, the learned Authorised Representative of the assessee has contended that the intention of the […]

Inheritance tax is a levy paid by a person who inherits the estate of the deceased. This tax is viewed as a tool to reduce the economic and consequent social disparity between the rich and the poor.
Relative explained in Explanation to section 56(2)(vi) of the Act includes relatives and as the assessee received gift from his HUF, which is a group of relatives, the gift received by the assessee from the HUF should be interpreted to mean that the gift was received from the relatives therefore the same is not taxable under section 56(2)(vi) of the Act, we hold accordingly.
