A husband purchasing wife's land for a price is not sale and hence invalid. It's better he gifts cash instead to his wife to tide over her failing short of money or monetary necessity in order to make it legal.by even getting tax rebate as wife is a relative within the meaning of specified relatives under IT act 1961.
