In a move that would provide major relief to subscribers of retirement fund body EPFO, the government has decided no tax would be deducted at source for PF withdrawals of up to Rs. 50,000.
The threshold limit has been extended from Rs. 30,000 to Rs. 50,000 of PF withdrawal for TDS.
The provision will come into effect from June 2016.
SBI Top Merchant Acquiring Bank
State Bank of India has become the top merchant acquiring bank in the country with 2.96 lakh installed point-of-sale terminals as of February 2016.
SBI is followed by HDFC Bank, Axis Bank and ICICI Bank.
These four banks together contribute to more than three-fourths of the total 13.63 lakh PoS terminals deployed in the country.
