The Bombay High Court is hearing a constitutional challenge to Section 56(2)(x) of the Income Tax Act, with a same-sex couple arguing that the law indirectly discriminates against them by denying the tax exemption available on gifts between legally recognised spouses. The Income Tax Department maintains that such benefits can only apply where the relationship is recognised as a marriage under Indian law. The matter is now listed for final hearing on July 30, 2026.
