Quick Summary
This discussion clarifies cash deposit limits in savings and current accounts, focusing on bank reporting requirements to the Income Tax Department. While there isn't a strict overall limit for deposits, banks must report cash deposits exceeding ₹10 lakh in savings/time deposits or ₹50 lakh in current accounts within a financial year. For single transactions, while not explicitly limited, depositing over ₹50,000 may prompt banks to question the source of funds, especially if it exceeds ₹1 lakh in a savings account.

Banks have to report cash deposits or withdrawals aggregating to Rs 50 lakh or more in a financial year in one or more Current Account/s of a person.

Banks/Post offices also have to report cash deposits aggregating Rs 10 lakh or more in a financial year in one or more accounts (other than Current Account / Time Deposit) of a person.

Banks/Post offices additionally have to report cash deposits aggregating Rs 10 lakh or more in a financial year in one or more Time Deposit accounts of a person .

May it apply in the cases related to sections 269SS, 269ST and other where a person takes or accepts any cash deposit /money borrowed /debt incurred/a specified sum above specific limits under above mentioned sections.
