30 September 2021 Dear Sir,

My father expired 2 years back and he was having a bank account in which I am the joint holder in the account.

Can I keep this account operational and show it as my account under Income tax while filing return. I am the second holder in the account.

Regards,
Divyesh Jain

30 September 2021 You may keep the account, but bank may not allow. You have to first apply for deletion of your father's name from the account, by submitting your father's death certificate. If bank obliges, it will be totally your account !!

30 September 2021 Yes. At the same time declare interest income of the account in your assessment. You are also responsible to declare all the transactions of the account in your IT file.
