Income Tax rules
According to income tax rules, there is a limit on cash deposits in savings accounts. That is, the total amount of cash you can deposit in the bank account during a set period. Actually, this limit is designed to monitor cash transactions. So that money laundering, tax evasion, and other illegal financial activities can be prevented. According to the report given in Forbes, if you deposit Rs 10 lakh or more in a financial year, then the IT department will have to be informed.
By the way, if you have a current account, then this limit is Rs 50 lakh. According to the report, there is no immediate taxation on this cash, but it is a rule for financial institutions to report transactions beyond these limits to the income tax department. For those who have not filed ITR for the last three years, TDS of 2% will be deducted that too on withdrawals of more than Rs 20 lakh.
