Query about tax liability on gift money

(Querist) 27 September 2011 This query is : Resolved 
Sir,
I wish to ask following few queries;
1. How much tax is payable by me if I were to receive a cash amount gifted by my father after sale of ancestral property or property purchased through ancestral resources?
2. Can my Father gift a cash amount to my wife i.e. his daughter in law after sale of ancestral property or property purchased through ancestral resources or his other resources? If yes, then what would be the tax liability?
3. Can my Father in law or Mother in law gift a cash amount/FD's (as a legal nominee)/Property (plot or land/house)to my wife i.e. their daughter earned through their own resources or income? If yes, then what would be the tax liability?
with warm regards and best wishes
