where is the comparison between payout from broker and a gift from spouse. Funds with broker are sent from my registered bank accounts and those funds are post taxed income and sources are audited.
My query is different. It is not about TAX part. I am just asking on the reporting part especially when source of funds in not accounted. So from your explanation can I assume that a Cash Gift from spouse does not fall under Income of any kind and hence I can choose not to report it to IT. Because 5 lakhs is not a small amount.
I am asking this because if I have 20 lakhs unaccounted money, can I route it in the form of Gift from spouse or parents. If IT exempts me from reporting the gifts received I can easily convert this money. Is this good idea.
See, I do not support evasion of Income taxes. What do you mean by source of funds are not accounted? Did you mean that the funds are tax evaded? Declare all such income with the correct source under the correct head of income and pay Income Tax. Period.
No second thoughts about this. Nothing else is going to help you.
Our army Jawans are working in bitter cold on the borders for meager salaries.
It is extremely rude and selfish behaviour to evade taxes.
Even many religions do not support tax evasion.
Hinduism says that illegally gained money if used for charity to temple does not give any relief and God does not accept such money as offering. Look at the poor people around us. They need education and welfare. I am happy to pay my taxes when I have matching income. If you are earning Rs. 100 you are just paying a fraction of it into the welfare of the poor, army etc as taxes. Not paying this is greedy and disgusting.
