13 September 2021 Tax is not just levied over your transactions, be it Savings account or Current account, but the income generated over these transactions are liable for tax assessment.
Generally current accounts are operated to transact for any business activity or professional.
As per IT act, any amount expended over the generation of income is allowed for deduction.
The explanation is in general. If you have any specific query, the same can be answered in detail.

13 September 2021 Thanks for your valuable answer sir,

I just wanted to know more in detail like how it all works

For Eg. If one's current account receives a payment and he have to pay to his employees but these payments are not regular or monthly basis, so will it count as a expense then, while compensating for filing tax for this account.

Thanks in advance for giving your precious time.

13 September 2021 If you are paying on his behalf, then naturally you may be getting just commission for the job. As such keep books of account. Make agreement with the party for the job work. and declare the commission received minus any expenditure related to that income, as you income in your ITR.

Be sure that the work is legitimate, specifically if it involves any foreign remittance.
