Court: Andhra Pradesh

ORDERB. Subhashan Reddy, J.1. In thisreference, the effect of the provision contained in Section 5(3) vis-a-vis Section 5(1)(viii) of the Gift Tax Act has to be considered.2. The assessee is an individual and his wife had gifted him an amount of Rs.25,000/- on 3-2-1972. On 30-10-1975, the assessee had in turn made a gift to his wife to the same quantum of Rs.25,000/-. The assessee's wife was not subjected to gift tax, but the assessee was made exigible to pay gift-tax for the gift amount of Rs.25,000/-made by him to his wife on 30-10-1975. The case of the assessee is that the gift amount made by his wife is now-way concerned with the gift he made and as such, Section 5(3) of the Gift Tax Act is not applicable and he should be exonerated of payment of gift tax. It is apt to extract both the provisions,which stood in the statute book before their repeal:'5.(1) Gift-tax shall not be charged under this Act in respect of gifts made by any person........... ........................ ............
