One can deposit any sum of money into his/her bank account. The provisions of Section 269ST are not applicable to Banking Companies.
The source of cash receipt by the depositor is to be explained to the Income-tax Department if questioned.
If the cash receipt is fallen within the ambit of section 269ST the depositor is liable to pay penalty u/s 271DA.
You are aware the amount of penalty is equal to the receipt of cash.
Best Wishes
