Deposits of old notes in banks will not provide any tax relief: Finance Minister

09 Nov 2016 Evaluate

In line with the government’s decision to withdraw high-denomination bank notes of Rs 500 and Rs 1,000, Finance Minister Arun Jaitley said that deposits of not functioning currency notes in bank accounts will not enjoy immunity from tax and the land of law will apply on source of such money.  He also said, in order to get newer or smaller denomination currencies, old currency notes have to be deposited in bank accounts.

Housewives, farmers with genuine savings and small amounts that people will deposit like Rs 25,000, 30,000 or 50,000 lying in house for expenses, whatever money could be there for meeting normal family expenses they need not worry about depositing cash in their bank accounts. Jaitley said that if the money is legitimate which had been previously withdrawn from bank or earned legally and saved and had been disclosed, there is nothing to worry about. But if it is illegal money, the source will have to be disclosed and if it is crime money, or bribe money, then the person is in trouble.

Finance Minister said that the move would help to make more and more transactions become digital and also said that people will now disclose income and pay taxes. According to him, the decision would bring more transactions under tax net and both direct and indirect taxes would move up. Also, India will become a more tax-compliant society.
