Ever heard of the term “HUF” and wondered what it really means?
The Hindu Undivided Family (HUF) isn’t just an age-old tradition—it’s one of India’s smartest legal and tax structures.
In simple words, it’s a joint family recognized by law as a separate taxpayer. So your HUF can own property, earn income, and file its own tax return, just like a person!
It’s a way of blending family unity with financial strategy.

One family, two taxpayers. One tradition, two advantages.
