limit of cash deposit

upto 10L a year is a safe amount, dont deposit more than 50k a week

a person can keep a signed paper ( receipt) with a revenue stamp on it, however limit for this is 10k a day per transaction per client 

There are 3 options -

Easy one, file ITR 1 as other income deducting all expenses to run your profession 

Little complex one, File ITR 4 as a consultant, show full income ( only 50% will be taxable income under this)

Most Complex, File ITR 3 as business, create bs & pnl

However for cash deposits below 10L per year no one is going to come after you

sir please explain this. no one who teaches at home takes signature of students. students pay like 1000-1500 per month. for per article publisher pays 2000-2500 if accepted.

suppose a person earned 25k, then depositing 25k together or 15k+10k with a difference of a week or ten days is ok?

paji as of now person is filing itr 1. now person will redeem mutual funds which will come under capital gains so itr 3 is complusory? if itr 3 then are bs and pnl compulsory? it will be a headache as income of person is not much

They don’t care about people earning/depositing 15-25k pm. Based on the available IT rules for STF, upto 1lakh cash deposit is fine (per transaction) and 10 lakh for the entire financial year

Income tax: These 5 cash transactions may attract I-T notice

For tuition fees, better to shift to UPI based payments. You can even have a record of who all paid.

Fro ghost writing etc, you can use the cash for personal expenses.

paji if students or their parents are willing to pay in cash, as amount is small so can’t the person note down in copy the details of student who gave them how much cash in month?
cash from both tuition and ghostwriting is used for personal expenses etc.but they want to deposit in bank as they make card payments and want to deposit in bank only.

paji what will outcome of itr type in this scenario? https://www.desidime.com/discussions/limit-of-c...

for how much per month earning people in cash do they tighten rules?

SBI permits only 3 free cash deposits per mth. Other banks also have similar restrictions. So that also will be a problem.

suppose a person earned 25k in a month so if it is deposited all together then it is okay?

Only thing you need to check is how many & how much free cash txns allowed by bank in a month. As long as single cash deposit txn is less than 1 lakh & total cash deposit is less than 10 lakh in a year then it is within income tax dept rules.

MF/market gains can be filed in itr2 in which tuition income can be shown as “others” income. itr3 is only compulsory for intraday/futures/options/speculative trading.

25k per month is no issue. prefer private bank than psu. There is more cash in system after demonetization . Don’t fear cash as long as you declare in ITR

paji can income tax challenge or reject proofs that suppose 15k was paid by 10 students or can they ask the details of students like id proof etc.or their parents? @guest_999

Bhai itni mehnat to mallaya aur nirav ne bhi nahi kari hogi apne scam hide karne mein jitni tum kar rahe apni income declare karne mein. IT dept kay pass itna time nahi hai ki tumhaare 15k cash deposit ki details check karega jab black money waale 15 crore idhar sey udhar kar dete hain cash mein.

if income is below 5L they hardly bother for such things. Just file ITR 1

15-25k is nothing!
If the cash deposit value is close to 100k or more than that, then you can opt for different banks* to deposit the amount
^^ This is unnecessary for 25k or even 50k

It all depends on the reporting authority (Bank cashier in this case*). They might even report a 50k/month or 7/8L/year cash deposit transactions if something doesn’t feel right

Check this below thread where the dimer deposited exactly 98k (49k x 2) for 5 consecutive months 

Today as usual I went to deposit money in both the accounts and the cashier forced me to say the reason for cash deposit as he says there is frequent transaction in my account.

He angrily replied that, if you don’t want to say the reason, from next time use deposit machine instead of coming here. We have the right to ask regarding the transactions. But there is no deposit machine nearby and I have to travel 6 kms to other branch for that.

paji as of now person is filing itr 1. now person will redeem mutual funds which will come under capital gains so itr 3 is complusory? if itr 3 then are bs and pnl compulsory? it will be a headache as income of person is not much

If u have mutual funds u can file ITR 2 which includes stocks and MF
Regarding, receipt, I never asked student or parents to sign it
you can yourself sign for both, just as an evidence
however let me tell you, this is an overkill
No one is going to question you for 5-10L of income a year
Also dont get into ITR 3, you need to have bs and pnl for that
instead u can do ITR 4 or ITR 2
ITR 2 will be easiest, just record your income after expenses in other income
and can separately report mf in ITR 2

thanku paji. 10 lakh cash deposit is total of all savings account?
suppose 1 lakh deposited in account 1 in a year
24k in account 2 in a year and so on. so, all banks tell income tax that this person deposited this much and then income tax software adds all amounts?

Yaha log 1000s of crore leke bhaj gaye hai,
if the government want to screw you, you have already broken 1000s of laws
as per Municipal law you cannot do any renovation in your house unless authorized
as per traffic law, you cannot drive your vehicle if it is not washed
as per excise law, you cannot drink or buy or store alcohol without a alcohol permit
so chill, unless you are into anti national activities, you need to worry about such amounts of money

Yes, 10L for all savings accounts and 50L for current

Why would a bank report these small 1L,24k per year cash deposits? They do report when something is off the limit / feels suspicious (Refer the SFT table i linked in previous post here, those are the things banks report). You can include all these small cash deposits via SFT if you want too

So, technically you can deposit more than 10L cash deposits via multiple banks (Which i wouldn’t recommend) and still avoid getting any notice from the IT dept but if they found out discrepancies somehow or if you fail the correct the statement then you might end up paying a lot as a penality (May be a lakh?)

File ITR3 under presumptive income
Simple stuff

Deposit as much as u want then

That was for savings acc interest data which automatically goes to IT dept & on which you are supposed to pay tax over 10k, here you are talking about manual cash deposit for which tax starts from above 2.5 lakh in a year.
