This is month of filing of IT Return. Lots of mail explains the procedure etc. One thing, I feel, has been missed out. I am reproducing below...
*Amendment in **Section 80TTA* * * New Section/ Amendment Section 80 TTA is proposed to be introduced to provide deduction to an individual or a Hindu undivided family in respect of interest received on deposits (not being time deposits) in a savings account banks, cooperative banks and post office. The deduction is restricted to Rs 10,000. It is also proposed to provide that where the income referred to in this section is derived from any deposit in a savings account held by, or on behalf of, a firm, an association of persons or a body of individuals, no deduction shall be allowed under this section in respect of such income in computing the total income of any partner of the firm or any member of the association or any individual of the body. The section is applicable with effect from April 01, 2013 and will apply from AY 2013-14 and onwards. Analysis/Conclusion The insertion of this new section has been a relief to individual or Hindu undivided family as interest on saving bank account was always a taxable income with no corresponding tax benefits. It would also help in avoiding inclusion of small savings bank interest in the taxable income, which was required to be done after deletion of section 80L. -- With best wishes S Chander -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Thatha_Patty" group.
