18-May-2011 , 01:09:52 amSince the gift is a share of listed company i.e. public are substantily interested in such company.. therefore gift is not taxable u/s 56(2)(viia) of income tax. Again Under section 47 of income tax gift is exempted from Capital Gain.. If you satisfy with my answer you can mail me at cadnjha2010@gmail.com

29-May-2012 , 10:05:23 amGift would not be taxable in the hands of anyone (as per section 56(2)(viia) if a firm or closely held company recieves shared of closely held company then the gift is taxable). Also gift will not amount to transfer in the hands of the donor as per virtue of section 47.
