The provisions of Section 56(2)(vi) are applicable to the taxation of gifts in excess of Rs. 50,000 in a financial year in the aggregate, for gifts received from non-relatives.
Thus, any gift from relatives of any amount during the financial year is completely exempt from tax. Here,Mrs."X" is relative of Mrs."Z"(Spouse of brother & sister is also a relative).
