Dear Latit,
Section 159 (1) of the Income tax Act, 1961 provides that where a person dies, his legal representatives shall be liable to pay any sum which the deceased would have been liable to pay if he had not died, in the like manner and to the same extent as the deceased. Further, Section 159 (2) (‘c) provides that all the provisions of this Act shall apply accordingly.
Therefore, in light of the above discussed provisions the legal heirs will be liable for the income (including concealed income) of the deceased person.
