Dear Sir,

As per the provisions of Income Tax Act 1961, there is no capital gain on transferring of shares to any relative as gift.

Definition of relative includes the following:

1. Spouse of the individual

2. Brother or sister of the individual

3. Brother or sister of the spouse of the individual

4. Brother or sister of either of the parents of the individual

5. Any lineal ascendant or descendant of the individual

6. Any lineal ascendant or descendant of the spouse of the individual

7. Spouse of the person referred to in above points

 As per the above definition Brother, Daughter and Brother's Wife are relative but Brother Son is not a relative.

Accordingly gift given to Brother, Daughter and Brother's Wife are non taxable and shown as exempt income under the head other sources while filing the income tax return.

But in case of Brother's Son, Gift will be taxable and tax to be paid on the same while filing the income tax return.

Yes, gift deed needs to prepared at the time of gift, so that if can be considered as legal document and can be referred whenever required in future.

Thanks and Regards
