Tax queries 667 views 7 replies

I received a show cause notice from AO few days back regarding unexplained credits in my bank account.

Recently The AO sent a notice in which he treated my cash deposits in my bank account as unexplained income U/S 69 and proposed to add Rs 18,00,000/- to the Total income of the assessee for AY 2016-17 under income from other sources and tax the same u/s 115BBE of the Act.. I explained about the source of the deposits but the AO was not satisfied and went ahead with the show cause notice.

Is it true that the unexplained income for AY 2016 is taxed at 30% under section 115BBE?

Could some one help with what would be the tax+ penalty+interest i would end up paying for 18 lakhs of unexplained income

What is the section for penalty for unexplained income

and section for interest

Yes, unexplained income for AY 2016 is taxed at 30% under section 115BBE. In addition to the tax, you may also be liable for a penalty under section 271(1)(c) of the Income Tax Act, which is equal to 100% of the tax payable on the undisclosed income. You will also be liable for interest on the tax and penalty under section 234A of the Income Tax Act. The rate of interest is 1% per month

Thanks for responding. Do i end up paying interest under section 234A or 234B or 234C or all of them? And is the interest calculated on only  tax or tax + penalty?

yes, all of them

Section 115BBE deals with the taxation of unexplained income, and it provides for a flat tax rate of 30% on such income. Additionally, a surcharge of 25% and education cess of 3% on the aggregate of tax and surcharge are levied.

However, it's crucial to note that tax laws can be subject to amendments, and new provisions may have been introduced or existing ones modified after my last update. Therefore, it's recommended to check the latest provisions of the Income Tax Act or consult with a tax professional for the most current and accurate information.

If you have received a show cause notice from the Assessing Officer (AO), it indicates that the tax authorities are questioning the explanation provided for the cash deposits in your bank account. If you have already explained the source of the deposits to the best of your ability and the AO is not satisfied, you may need to follow the appropriate legal procedures.
