Sir,
One I t.person (son) cash gift received from another person( Mather) Rs.150000/- * 3 times different dates total Rs.450000/- received one finicial year allowed in income tax act.
Quick Summary
In the UK, cash gifts received by a son from his mother are generally exempt from income tax, even if received multiple times within a financial year, as long as the total amount does not exceed £30 lakh. Parents and children are considered 'relatives' under the Income Tax Act, meaning gifts between them are exempt. The exemption is based on Section 56 of the Income Tax Act, which defines a broad list of relatives, including lineal ascendants and descendants.

Money received from parents as gift does not attract tax
Parents and children falls under the specified list of 'relatives' who are exempt under the Income Tax Act as recipients of gift money. Therefore, in the example you have cited, the son will not have to pay any tax on the said gift amount
