The Reserve Bank of India (RBI) has opened additional counters and asked the tax payers to deposit their income tax dues in advance well before the last date.
According to the central bank, the facility for depositing income tax by cash or cheque is available at 145 branches of public sector banking and at three branches of private sector banks.
The list of these branches had been updated outside the premises of RBI and also at branches of other private banks. The RBI has urged people to take maximum advantage of these arrangements and deposit the taxes well before the last day.
