FAQ :
Credit card companies and banks are required to report transactions to the Income Tax Department if the spending reaches ₹10 lakh (₹1 million) or more in a financial year.
The department monitors these transactions to curb tax evasion and ensure better tax compliance by detecting discrepancies between a taxpayer's spending and their reported income.
If discrepancies are found, the Income Tax Department may send notices to taxpayers who have not filed returns or have under-reported their income.
For large credit card payments, banks may require your Permanent Account Number (PAN). High-value cash payments towards credit card bills exceeding ₹1 lakh must also be reported.
The department uses advanced data analytics, including Big Data and AI, to analyse high-value transactions and detect anomalies or potential tax evasion.
