Ram lal ji : Krishna Lalji, are there any special benefits for girl child?

Krishna Lalji ( Tax Planner ) : Ram lal ji, Government had launched “Sukanya Samruddhi Scheme”


for girl child, the scheme says that deposits can be made in the name of girl child by her parents. Deposits can be as low as Rs 250 per month to maximum of Rs 1,50,000 per year.

Krishna Lalji ( Tax Planner ) : Ram lal ji, Income Tax provides following rules related to Minors earning & Income:-

1. If a minor has earned income, it will clubbed in the income of the child’s parents whose income is higher. Also, such parent can claim exemption of Rs 1500 or income of minor whichever is less.

2. However, if the minor child has earned income from manual work or any activity involving application of his/her skill, knowledge, talent, experience, etc, then the income shall not be clubbed in the income of his/her parents.

For Example- A Minor has earned Rs 10 Lakh as a winning prize in a singing competition, then that income shall be taxed in hands of that Minor and will not be clubbed in parent’s income.

Ram lal ji : Krishna Lal ji, what lesson the taxpayer should take from this?

Krishna Lal ji ( Tax Planner ) : Ram lal ji, Any parent in the world always want their child to excel in any activity their child wants to go, and parents spend their earning in making their children’s dream come true. Education is the right of every child but there are few who are lucky to get it and those who are lucky to have should take benefits of the deductions that are available with it.
