Dear Member

Refering to the CBDT circular regarding Cash deposits or withdrawals aggregating to Rs 50 lakh or more in a financial year in one or more current account of a person will have to be reported by the bank to Director of Joint Director of Income Tax (Intelligence and Criminal Investigation) through online filing in FORM 61A with effect from April 1..
MY query is -In case if the person hold two current account with different bank then limit of Rs 50 lakh would apply separately for each bank account
