Mint Bangalore
|March 03, 2025
My wife's PPF will mature in April. She wants to transfer ₹23 lakh to my senior citizen savings account and the balance ₹7 lakh to our daughter.
What will be the tax implications for all of us? From April, interest will be earned in my name, and I understand that I should and will be liable to pay tax. Please clarify in whose income the interest will be added and whether any clubbing provisions will apply.
