Hi Devendra,
Bank charges are not llowed to be claimed for deduction against the income of Assessee unless he/she is having "Income u/h business or profession". Further, the Bank Account must be used for business or profession.
From the available facts & the term used by you "Saving Bank", it seems that either the assessee does not have income u/h Bus or profession OR the Bank account is not being used in business/profession, thus, the Bank charges are NOT DEDUCTIBLE.
