In my 26AS I find some SFT-005 transaction mentioned in part E. Is this transaction related to that done in a FY. Is this related to FD opened in the concerned FY only. Where from can I get the details of the aggregation as filed in my case by SBI. I have a joint a/c with my husband. Regards, Sanghita Chowdhury.
