SFT - 005 Transaction in 26AS for NRE deposit

The problem is how are NRE deposit declared in ITR since they are tax exempt and Form 16 provided by Bank doesn't have any mention of such deposit. Since if I declare only NRO deposit it will not match figure in any way.

Hey Krishna, How were you able to solve this issue? Even in my 26AS the NRE FD is being shown as Purchase of Time Deposits.

Some information in AIS or 26AS are just FYI type information. For NRI that's is those with purchase of time deposit in NRE account. Just keep your FD's receipt handy. If IT department come back with missing information then you can show them. Upfront you don't need to take any action since as per rule those are tax exempt. 

Many thanks man :)

The information provided in the 26AS is for consideration only. Keep all your records of NRE FD available with you for future reference when you receive any Notice from the dept in the future. 

Also, ensure that while filing you're IT return you mention the interest component against these NRE FD in your IT return under the exempt section. 

Puja ji,  Do you mean for NRE time deposit shown in AS26 as SFT-005, we do not have to mention it in ITR and just keep the fd records handy for future inquiries ?

Whether FCNR deposits are reported in SFT005
