We keep our savings in savings accounts. But, there is a limit to this as well. If we have more money in our account than this limit, then we can come under the radar of the Income Tax Department. Many people are still unaware of this. In this article, we will tell you what are the rules of the Income Tax Department regarding savings accounts.
Information will have to be given on transactions more than this
According to financial experts, the total amount deposited in a savings account in a financial year should not exceed Rs 10 lakh. If it exceeds this limit, then information about it will have to be given to the Income Tax Department. At the same time, according to Section 269ST of the Income Tax Act, the account holder can transact Rs 2 lakh in a day. If he transacts more than that, he will have to explain the reason to the bank.
Banks also provide this information
According to the rules, if a person deposits Rs 50,000 or more in a day, he has to inform the bank about it. Apart from this, the account holder also has to provide his PAN details. If the account holder does not have a PAN, he has to submit Form 60 or 61. At the same time, transactions of more than Rs 10 lakh are considered high-value transactions. The bank gives information about such transactions to the Income Tax Department.
What to do if you receive a notice?
Many times, for some reason, we make such a big transaction and do not inform the Income Tax Department about it. In such a situation, we get a notice from the department. Now the question arises that what should we do in this situation? If you get such a notice, then you should respond to it. Along with the reply to the notice, you should also give information about the documents related to it. These documents include statements, investment records, or assets etc. According to experts, if you have any problem in responding to the notice or regarding the documents, then you can consult a financial advisor.
