08 August 2021

I have a Post office savings Bank account, it does not IFSC. Do I need to add this account for validation in the Income tax portal?

Kindly Advice.

Thanks, I have included interest in my Gross Income for taxation purpose. Since IFSC is not available, I thought of not validating the account as it will not get validated.

IFSC IS A COĎE WHICH IS BEING OFFERED BY BANKS.
DIFFERENT BANKS HAVE DIFFERENT IFSC CODE.THIS ENABLES SEAMLESS TRANSFER OF FUNDS.

@ Prasanth , I did not get you, you have mentioned for P O Account IFSC is not required. You cannot validate any account without IFSC, it's mandatory. can you kindly let me know if there is any way to validate POSB account. Thanks
