To achieve this goal , you need to give away a portion of your funds, either as a gift or a loan to your parents as well as your parents-in-law so that in years to follow your income tax burden becomes lighter as the income on funds transferred by you to them would bring in income which would be taxed in their hands.
 Let’s assume that both your parents are senior citizens. Here’s how you go about it. Income tax deductions allow senior citizens a tax-free income of Rs 3 lakh. To exhaust this limit, say, you gift `28 lakh to each parent in cash. Of this, both can individually put Rs  15 lakh in a senior citizens savings scheme that earns a return of 8.3% and pays interest every quarter. Each will get yearly interest of nearly `1.2 lakh. If they invest the remaining `13 lakh each in the State Bank of India’s (SBI) fixed deposit (FD) of eight years (at an interest rate of 7.25%) that pays interest each quarter, it will fetch them each an income of nearly `0.95 lakh annually. That means your parents have individually earned `.215 lakh each year. With the tax-free limit at `3 lakh they don’t even need to file tax returns.
