If you are a State Bank of India (SBI) customer and you withdraw cash of Rs 20 lakh and above in a year, then this tax saving advice from the bank will be of great help to you. The largest public sector lender tells how customers can save themselves from paying unnecessary TDS (Tax Deducted at Source) on cash withdrawals of Rs 20 lakh and above. All you have to do is follow these 3 simple things.
TDS under section 194N is applicable on cash withdrawals over Rs 20 lakhs if Income Tax Return (INR) is not filed for the past 3 years, the bank says.
This valuable information has been shared by the bank on its official Twitter handle @TheOfficialSBI.
Customers with cash withdrawals over Rs 20 lakhs need to do this:
1) Submit your PAN details to the bank if already not done.
2) Non-availability of PAN leads to higher deduction of tax.
3) Submit your IT return details to your bank.
