Undervalued transfers: treat as understated consideration or bona fide inadequate sale, invoking income tax or gift tax rules accordingly. Where a transfer for consideration below fair market value reflects an understated consideration (assessee received more than declared), section 52 of the Income-tax Act applies subject to the statutory threshold and without need to quantify exact understatement; where the transfer is a bona fide inadequate consideration, the difference is taxable under section 4(1) of the Gift-tax Act if its conditions are satisfied, and the two regimes should not duplicate tax on the same amount, though either may be invoked protectively.
