Clubbing of Income — Know Whose Return It Belongs On.

Advisory on when income from a transferred or gifted asset is clubbed with the transferor's income rather than taxed in the recipient's hands.

Book Free Consultation

Transferring an asset to a spouse, minor child, or certain related entities does not always move the resulting income out of the transferor's tax return — the clubbing provisions can pull it straight back, unless a recognised exception applies.

At N D Savla & Associates, we advise individuals and families in Nashik on whether income from a gifted or transferred asset falls within the clubbing provisions, and on the exceptions — adequate consideration, specific statutory carve-outs — that can take it out.

This advisory typically runs alongside gift and estate planning, since the structure chosen for a transfer often determines whether clubbing applies at all.
