FAQ'S


In a Hindu Undivided Family (HUF), the senior-most male member, known as the Karta, leads and manages the family affairs.

Absolutely! Prior to January 2016, women were not considered eligible to be the Karta of a Hindu Undivided Family (HUF). However, a ground-breaking decision by the Delhi High Court allowed females to assume the role of Karta. Despite this judicial development, the Income Tax Act has not officially recognized this change.

Certainly! A Hindu Undivided Family (HUF) isn't bound to be a resident of India. If the control and management of the HUF are located outside India, it is considered a non-resident entity. When the affairs of the HUF are overseen from a location beyond India, it is categorized as a non-resident HUF.

Certainly! While the Hindu Undivided Family (HUF) is eligible for deductions under section 80C, it's important to note that both the HUF and its individual members cannot simultaneously claim deductions for the same investment or expense under this section.

For a Hindu Undivided Family (HUF), being a resident of India is contingent on the control and management of its affairs transpiring wholly or partially within the country. Notably, if the Karta, the family head, is a non-resident, the family's resident status persists unless pivotal decisions about the family are orchestrated outside India. This nuanced criterion emphasizes that the residency of an HUF extends beyond the physical location of its Karta.

A Hindu Undivided Family (HUF) necessitates a minimum of two members for its formation; a solitary individual cannot establish an HUF.
