Hi HMRC, My father in law wants to gift me some money from India. Do I need to pay tax on this in UK? Thanks

Hi,
 
There are no income tax implications on the receipt of a cash gift unless the cash gift generates interest or dividends.

These would then potentially be subject to tax. 

Further guidance can be found here :

Tax on savings interest   and :

Tax on dividends   .

Thank you.
