Good afternoon. Please tell me that postal RD of wife ,when prematurely withdrawn due to medical emergency the amount credited to Bank account of joint one where I am the primary a/c holder and wife is secondary. The RD is completely wife's income. Now who will pay the tax of amount received from bank ? Myself or wife ? But it shows in my income .What shall I do ?
Ans: I understand this situation can be confusing, especially during a medical emergency. Here's how the tax on the withdrawn amount likely works:

Tax Liability: The tax responsibility generally falls on the account holder where the money is credited. In this case, since the RD proceeds are in the joint account with you as primary, the tax liability would be yours.

Wife's Income Proof: However, you can potentially minimize the tax burden by claiming it as your wife's income. To do this, you'll need documentation to prove the RD deposit originated from her income. This could include receipts or bank statements showing her salary deposits used for the RD.

Filing Separate Returns: If the RD amount is substantial and pushes you into a higher tax bracket, consider filing separate tax returns. This might be beneficial if your wife's income falls under a lower tax bracket.

Here's what you can do:

Gather Documents: Collect documents proving the RD deposit came from your wife's income (salary slips, bank statements).

Consult a CA: A Chartered Accountant (CA) can analyze your specific situation and advise on the most tax-efficient way to handle this. They can guide you on filing taxes considering your joint account and your wife's income proof.

Remember, this is a general explanation, and tax laws can get nuanced. Consulting a CA ensures you get the most accurate advice for your situation.

I am engineer with 16 years of IT experience and now a break of 11 yrs. But in 11 yrs I had been taking Quantitative aptitude lectures as a visiting faculty in various engineering and MBA colleges and also done Mutual fund certification. I haven't been siting but doing many things professionally in last 11 yrs(In my subject of interest as Maths, Teaching, Finance, Accounting, Wealth Management). I was thinking of doing ESG certification. What kind of role I would get if i am CFA ESG certified.I am looking for Professionally and intellectually engaging role where I can contribute to Society. Not a very NGO type( I have tried working with few NGO's)
Ans: I won't recommend you to go for ESG certification unless you are having a background of Env. Engg and Environmental Impact Assessment. The certificate course of ESG is costly also. I would request you to open your own academy ( if off line not possible then online) and go for only one subject. Let me know your age.Focus only on one subject. You have explored many areas and now you are perplexed. Here the questions are assigned to me through rediffmail. So second time whether your question will come to me or not is not known to anyone of us. Due to the policy I can’t share my email ID and Phone Number. But I would request you to follow me in LINKEDIN and send request so that I can accept you, then through LINKEDIN I can counsel you in the future multiple times. Through LINKEDIN I will be readily and easily accessible. I have counselled and changed thousands of lives. As long as I am there I won’t allow you to be defeated. Mind that always I am there with you like an invisible shadow to show you the right career path.
