Cash deposited


This query is : Resolved 

10 December 2015 sir my query is one of my friend cash deposited in my saving account Rs.600000/- for his VISA purpose , next day i have trf to my friend account , for this transtion i have pay income tax please help me

10 December 2015 No. You are not required to pay Income Tax. Just show transaction in your books as a Loan taken and Loan re-payment.

Your friend is required to justify the source of loan in case of query arises.

10 December 2015 Dear Jainam,

won't a cash deposit in excess of Rs 20000 attract 269SS once you claim it to be a loan?

10 December 2015 Dear Nikhil,

I have given my answer assuming that they are not audited under IT Act, 1961.

Practically, depositing cash in bank account doesn't make a problem for assessee if the total deposit in one F.Y. is less than Rs. 10 Lakhs.

10 December 2015 you are confusing the AIR, 44AB and 269SS. not linked at all.

10 December 2015 In normal practice for VISA application everyone has to do this type of transaction and everybody knows about it. So, I don't think practically there is problem in this transaction.

If you are telling that this transaction create problem in future the suggest a way for him as per law.

10 December 2015 see the problem. Yes, for VISA application, people do this. But the way to do it is to get the money through RTGS/NEFT/cheque.

If you say it is a loan, then you are automatically violating 269SS. If you say it is gift, it becomes tazable. The simple way to deal to show the money received as income and then show return of money as sales return itself. that way there is no income-tax angle including disallowance for cash expense as no expense would be claimed by anyone.

Assuming the persons are not in business, it wont even entail service tax implications.

10 December 2015 Yes, agree it would be a good solution.

But what if they are salaried persons? All of sudden sales receipt of Rs. 6 lakhs would not raise any question for salaried person?

10 December 2015 well, even if question is raised, Income-tax can't question it under any particular section of the income-tax act as long as proper disclosures are made. If you say I received Rs 6 lakhs as service income, that won't invoke 44AA, 44AB. So no books are required. Since you returned all money, it wont be taxable.

10 December 2015 Ok. Great that would be a good way for showing source of cash deposit.

Thanks.
