What if my father gives me money is it taxable?

Gifts from “”relatives”” are totally tax free irrespective of the amount involved. A father would fall within the definition of “”relative”” and so, if you receive a gift from your father, the same will not be taxable in your hands as income. You can use the gifted amount as you want.
