What happens if PAN Card is not linked to a bank account?
In case your PAN Card is not linked with a bank account, opening a fixed deposit account, and depositing cash more than Rs. 50,000 will not be possible. Moreover, it will also result in TDS getting deducted at 20% if the interest amount of the FD account exceeds Rs. 40,000 which is higher than the current 10%. This means your PAN Card details must be linked with your bank account.
