Unexpected financial gain (8)

I believe the answer is:

windfall

(Other definitions for windfall that I've seen before include "Unexpected gain" , "Piece of luck (but it might be bruised)" , "Piece of unexpected good fortune, or an apple on the ground" , "Unexpected bonus" , "Sudden and unexpected piece of good fortune" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
