Hello Friends,

I am 38 years old and the father of two young loving daughters.
Apart from the regular investments, I also invest in unlisted equities and startup seed funding.
To date, I have made these investments in my name. Off lately I had a thought to set up an LLP with my wife and do these investments (unlisted equities and startup seed funding) through this LLP entity instead of an individual name.
A few of the raw benefits that I can see of channelizing them through LLP are,
1. Easy management of these assets (since the returns are received after a longer tenure)
2. Easy transfer to kids
3. Arm length distance from these investments
4. In case any unforeseen event happens to me, the family knows the holding entity and it will be easy to get control. (That's why I mentioned the father of two daughters in the beginning)
These thoughts might be incorrect or incomplete as well.

From the vast experience of esteemed members of this group, I would like to understand if I should continue making investments through a personal route or should I create an LLP or should I opt for any other mode?

Thanks.

As per section 285BA of the Income Tax Act 1961 & under rule 114E of the Income Tax Rule, 1962. It is mentioned under SFT 005 that "One or more time deposits ( other than a time deposit made through renewal of another time deposit) of a person aggregating to ten lakh rupees or more in a financial year of a person" shall be reported to Income Tax Department.

Does it also apply to transactions on NRE accounts as these are non-taxable? I understand @CA R SEETHARAMAN had mentioned that there are circulars from IT department to confirm these don't have to be included for reporting by the bank but haven't found them myself.

Anyone can point me to the circular?

Sir,
Demand raised for inoperative PAN (Pan not linked with Aadhaar on the date of filing TDS return). Now PAN is linked to Aadhar and status of Pan is operative.
Do we need to pay total tds @ 20%. Or since PAN is operative now, can we file correction statement without paying 20% tds. Plz guide. This is for 26Q for Q2 of FY 203-24.
