Quick Summary
This discussion clarifies whether banks report cash deposits and fixed deposits (FDs) to the IT department. While FDs exceeding certain limits or generating interest are reported, the bank also reports TDS deducted on FD interest. It's important to note that Section 80TTA applies to savings account interest, while Section 80TTB covers both savings and FD interest for senior citizens, potentially reducing taxable income.
