Ans: No I.Tax is payable on FDRs. Its Interest Earned on these FDRs, which is subject to tax.
If this is your only income, then no Tax would be payable on its interest, since it would be less than the basic exemption limit under the income tax act.
Most welcome for any further clarifications. Thanks.

Ans: Tax Implications on Transfer of Shares to Your Wife
No tax on the transfer:
Transferring shares to your wife is treated as a gift.
Under Indian tax laws, gifts between spouses are tax-free.
There is no gift tax for you or your wife on this transfer.

No capital gains tax at the time of transfer:
Since you are not selling the shares, there is no capital gain.
Hence, no capital gains tax applies to you.

Tax Implications When Your Wife Sells the Shares
Clubbing of Income Rules Apply:
Even though the shares are in your wife’s name, the capital gains will be taxed in your hands.
This is due to the clubbing provisions under Section 64 of the Income Tax Act.
The income from the gifted asset is added to the income of the person who gifted it.

Capital Gains Calculation:
The original cost of acquisition and the holding period will be based on when you bought the shares.
This means:

Short-term or long-term capital gain will depend on your holding period.
Indexed cost (for long-term gains) will be based on your purchase date.
Tax Rate:

Short-term capital gains (STCG): Taxed at 15% if held for less than 1 year.
Long-term capital gains (LTCG): Gains above Rs 1 lakh taxed at 10% (without indexation) if held for more than 1 year.
Key Points to Remember
The capital gain will be added to your taxable income, not your wife’s.
If your wife reinvests the proceeds, income from that reinvestment will be taxed in her name.
This clubbing rule applies only to the first level of income (capital gains in this case).
How to Reduce Tax Liability (Legally)
If your wife invests the sale proceeds into new assets, the future income from those assets will be taxed in her name.
This helps in tax planning for future earnings.

Ans: If you do not have a GST number, you cannot claim GST input tax credit (ITC) or get a refund of GST paid on purchases. However, depending on your situation, there are some ways to manage taxes:

1. If You Are a Salaried Employee
You don’t need a GST number to file income tax returns.
You can claim deductions under Section 80C, 80D, HRA, and other sections to reduce taxable income.
If TDS is deducted, file ITR to claim excess tax refund.
2. If You Are a Business Owner or Freelancer (Without GST Number)
If your turnover is below Rs 20 lakh (service) or Rs 40 lakh (goods), GST registration is not mandatory.
You cannot charge GST on invoices or claim input tax credit on business expenses.
Instead, show expenses as deductions under income tax rules.
3. If You Paid GST but Do Not Have a GST Number
If you have paid GST on any purchase, but you don’t have a GSTIN, you cannot claim ITC.
However, you can include those expenses as business costs to reduce income tax.
4. If You Are Eligible for GST Registration
If your business turnover exceeds the GST threshold, register for GST to claim ITC.
If you voluntarily register for GST, you can claim ITC on future purchases.
5. If You Want a GST Refund Without a GST Number
GST refunds are usually only for registered businesses.
If you are an exporter or have made a zero-rated supply, you need a GST number to claim refunds.
If you were wrongly charged GST, you can request the seller for a refund or avoid paying GST on exempted items.
Final Insights
Without a GST number, you cannot claim GST input tax credit.
For salaried employees, claim deductions under income tax laws.
For businesses, show expenses to reduce taxable income.
If eligible, register for GST to claim ITC and get refunds.

Ans: You have a strong financial foundation with a good salary, no loans, and multiple properties. Since you are new to stocks and mutual funds, a structured approach will help secure your family's future. Below is a complete financial plan considering your goals.

1. Emergency Fund
Keep at least 6 to 12 months of expenses in a separate account.
Since your monthly expenses (India + abroad) are around Rs 60,000, maintain Rs 5-7 lakhs in a liquid fund or fixed deposit.
This will protect you from unexpected job loss or medical emergencies.
2. Health Insurance
Since you and your family don’t have health insurance, getting coverage is important.
Opt for a Rs 10-20 lakh family floater health insurance plan.
Choose a separate policy for your parents if they are dependent on you.
A good insurance policy will reduce the risk of medical expenses affecting your savings.
3. Investments for Children’s Education & Marriage
For Son 1 (Age: 3) & Son 2 (Age: 6 months)
Higher education costs in India and abroad are rising.
You need at least Rs 50-80 lakhs per child for higher education after 15 years.
Marriage expenses may require Rs 20-30 lakhs per child after 25 years.
Investment Plan:

Invest Rs 25,000 per month in a mix of equity mutual funds.
Split between large-cap, mid-cap, and flexi-cap funds.
Increase investment by 10% every year to match inflation.
Invest in regular mutual funds through a Certified Financial Planner (CFP) for expert guidance.
4. Future Property Purchase (Every 5 Years)
Buying a property every 5 years requires structured saving.
You should accumulate at least Rs 50-80 lakhs in 5 years for the next property.
Investment Plan:

Set aside Rs 40,000 per month in a combination of debt and equity funds.
For short-term (5 years), invest 60% in debt funds and 40% in equity funds.
This ensures capital safety while still getting growth.
5. Building Future Passive Income (Rs 75,000 to Rs 1 Lakh per Month)
To generate Rs 1 lakh per month, you need a corpus of Rs 2-3 crore.
Since you are just starting, a mix of growth and income-based investments is necessary.
Investment Plan:

Allocate Rs 50,000 per month to mutual funds with dividend options.
Invest in a mix of high-quality debt and equity funds for steady returns.
Increase investment as your salary grows.
6. Retirement Planning
You haven’t planned for early retirement, but financial freedom is important.
You need Rs 5-7 crore to retire comfortably by 55-60 years.
Investment Plan:

Invest Rs 50,000 per month in equity mutual funds.
Increase SIP amount as your income increases.
Later, shift investments to safer options like senior citizen schemes and annuities for retirement income.
7. Buying a Car (2nd Hand Car Soon)
If planning to buy in the next 6-12 months, keep the amount in a fixed deposit or liquid fund.
For a Rs 10 lakh car, set aside Rs 1 lakh per month for the next 10 months.
Avoid car loans since you have good savings potential.
8. Life Insurance Protection
If you don’t have term insurance, buy a Rs 2-3 crore term plan immediately.
This ensures your family is financially protected.
9. Investment Strategy for Beginners
Since you are new to stocks and mutual funds, start SIP investments in regular mutual funds.
Avoid index funds and direct plans, as actively managed funds provide better risk-adjusted returns.
Work with a Certified Financial Planner (CFP) to select the best funds.
10. Reviewing & Monitoring Investments
Review investments every 6 months with a Certified Financial Planner.
Rebalance asset allocation based on market conditions.
Increase SIP amounts as income grows.
Final Insights
Your current financial position is strong, and you have the potential to create long-term wealth.
A structured investment plan in mutual funds will secure your family’s future.
Protect your family with health and life insurance immediately.
Set clear financial goals and invest consistently.
Avoid unnecessary loans and focus on building assets.
Work with a Certified Financial Planner for better financial security.

Ans: For your mother to claim capital gains tax exemption under Section 54 of the Income Tax Act, the property must meet certain conditions:

Key Conditions for Section 54 Exemption
Ownership: The new property must be purchased in your mother’s name.
Timeframe: Purchase should be within 1 year before or 2 years after the sale of the original property.
Type of Property: Must be a residential property in India.
Can She Register the Property in Your Name?
No, she cannot claim the tax exemption if the property is directly registered in your name.
The exemption is strictly allowed when the new property is purchased in the name of the seller (your mother).
Alternative Option: Gift Deed After Purchase
Your mother can purchase the property in her name and claim the exemption.
After the purchase, she can execute a gift deed to transfer the property to you.
A gift from mother to child is tax-free under the Income Tax Act.
However, you may incur stamp duty charges on the gift deed, depending on your state’s rules.
Why This Approach Works
The Income Tax Department recognizes the exemption because the initial purchase was in your mother’s name.
The gift deed is treated separately and doesn’t affect her eligibility for the exemption.
Final Suggestion
Buy the property in your mother’s name to claim the exemption.
Afterward, transfer it to you through a gift deed to avoid capital gains tax for both of you.
Consult a tax expert for proper documentation and compliance.
This ensures tax savings and a smooth transfer of ownership.

Ans: Dear Anonymous,
You simply talk to your brother's wife and tell her how her behavior is making you feel. Also, not many people understand that sitting at the backseat gives different roles to the one who is driving and to the one who is sitting behind. So, it may just be a matter of expressing and being clear.

All the best!

Ask the 'guy' to step in and do his bit to talk to your family. If they are able to appreciate what you appreciate in him, maybe things can work.
