Transfer of income without transfer of asset [Section 60] – Income Tax

Transfer of income without transfer of asset [Section 60] :

(i) If any person transfers the income from any asset without transferring the asset itself, such income is to be included in the total income of the transferor.

(ii) It is immaterial whether the transfer is revocable or irrevocable and whether it was made before the commencement of this Act or after its commencement.

(iii) For example, Mr.A confers the right to receive rent in respect of his house property on his wife, Mrs.A, without transferring the house itself to her. In this case, the rent received by Mrs.A will be clubbed with the income of Mr.A.
