Most people today have a savings bank account for many reasons—it’s a safe place to store money, helps earn interest, and makes transferring funds or paying bills easy with UPI or net banking. It also gives access to services like loans or investments. As part of your tax reporting, it’s necessary to declare all your active Indian bank accounts to the tax department.


All active domestic bank accounts must be reported in your tax return.
