As a result of #demonetisation of Rs.500 and Rs.1000 currency notes in circulation till Nov 8, 2016, you were supposed to exchange or deposit such banknotes latest by Dec 30, 2016.
This is now being scrutinized by the Income Tax Department.
The idea is to identify cases of #blackmoney, where such cash transactions do not appear to be in line with the taxpayer's profile as per IT Dept.'s database. Such discrepancies need to be verified.
This verification — of demonetized currency deposited — has been termed as Operation Clean Money.
Relax!
You don't need to do any bulky paperwork. Nor do you have to visit the Income Tax Office.
If there is any mismatch between your cash deposits and your tax profile, you can verify the source of deposits ONLINE in a simple form... to show that it is not black money.
Briefly
- If your deposits have been identified as discrepant, you will receive an email and SMS.
- You can also view such information on https://incometaxindiaefiling.gov.in
- Log in (or register if not already registered)
- Check the details at the link 'Cash Transactions 2016' under the 'Compliance' section
- If required, submit your explanation online (discussed below) within a period of 10 days
- That's it!
The case would be closed if the explanation, of the source of cash, is found to be clean and justified (or if you have declared the deposit as black money under Pradhan Mantri Garib Kalyan Yojna).
