All About HUF

Hindu Undivided Family (HUF). You can reduce taxes by expanding your family unit and combining assets to form a HUF. HUF collects taxes from its donors one by one. A HUF can be formed by a Hindu family’s circle of relatives. HUFs can also be formed by Buddhists, Jains, and Sikhs. HUF has its PAN and keeps track of its contributors’ tax filings.

Because a HUF is taxed one by one from its contributions, deductions (including those allowed under Section eighty) and exemptions authorized under the tax laws can be claimed one by one through it. For instance, suppose you and your partner have two children. For example, if you and your partner decide to form a HUF with your two children, all four of you, as well as the HUF, can claim a Section 80C deduction. HUF is commonly used by households to build property. Let’s take a closer look.

How does HUF get taxed?
