There are websites like Swagbucks that give out Amazon and Flipkart gift cards and discount coupons if you use their search engine or watch ads.You can expect maximum ~3000 rupees a month in gift card and discounts for this(but only if you use their sites regularly.You may get worth rupees 0 one month and earn 3000 rupees another).They reward you w/ "points" which can be redeemed for these gift cards.The websites are really legitimate but would someone incur any sort of income tax for this.The annual income comes within the nontaxable limit.Would a minor(16 years old,to be specific) have to pay some sort of income tax for this?What about a minor's nontaxable earnings limit?Thanks in advance.
