01 August 2011 Hi,

If a person has got salary income and the total income is less than 5 lacs....say Rs.495000, appropriate tax has been deducted. Besides salary he has interest from a savings bank account and has received dividend during the year to the tune of 2000 (no TDS deducted) taking the total taxable income to Rs. 497000 .

1.Are interest from savings bank account & dividend a taxable income or its exempt from tax?
2. Is it mandatory for him to file ITR?

Please advise.

01 August 2011 The issue raised has to be looked into with reference to CBDT Notification 36/2011 dated 23/6/2011. As per that notification, salaried employees having salary and bank s.b a/c interest income,subject to certain monetary limits, are exempted from filing returns. But in your case,u derive dividend, though exempted in most cases,hence the referred notification seems not applicable to u meaning thereby income tax return has to be filed.

01 August 2011 When you say that s.b. a/c interest is exempt + dividend too is exempt then does he need to show these 2 as taxable income and pay tax on it ? or its just for IT information that these 2 additional incomes are exempt icomes ?

Please advise.

01 August 2011 I didn't say s.b interest is exempt. Interest on s.b account is fully taxable. Dividend from Indian companies is totally exempt under section 10(34)of the Income tax Act,1961.
