X and Y are husband and wife.X retired and got super annuation benefits.He opened sb and TDR accounts with his name as first depositor and that of his wife as 2nd depositor. In another branch he opened accounts with his wife s name as 1st depositor and his name as 2nd depositor, as somebody advised that women have some concessions in Income tax.. So he furnished pancard of his wife to the bank for the deposits made. However he later came to know since his wife has no individual income and he only the assesse So he has taken the clubbed total interest income in both the branches and calculated and paid the tax.But his wife s name is also figured in 26 AS as Assesse though she is not having any individual income. Is this in order or whether her name is to be removed as assesse.If so what is the option.
