IS A GIRL MARRIED TO SIKKIMESE MAN EXEMPTED FROM IT?

No, a girl married to a Sikkimese man is not automatically exempted from Income Tax under the Income Tax Act, 1961.
Only those whose names appear in the 1961 register or their legitimate descendants (Sikkimese by birth) are exempt.
Women who marry Sikkimese men do not become Sikkimese subjects merely by marriage and hence do not get automatic tax exemption.
If the woman herself or her parents were Sikkimese subjects in 1961, she may be considered eligible.

Hi,
I need to withdraw cash of around 50L for a property purchase and would like to know how to do it without getting into any trouble. I am considering splitting it into 25L per FY and withdrawing it from 3 different banks that I have an account in. Will this help avoid the reporting by banks since the amount withdrawn at each bank will be less than 10L in each FY?
Thanks
Splitting the transaction across multiple banks and financial years may reduce the chances of automatic reporting, but it is not a foolproof method to avoid scrutiny.
The Income Tax Department tracks transactions using your PAN, which is linked across all your bank accounts. So even if no single bank reports a withdrawal exceeding ₹10 lakh in a year, the overall pattern can still be visible and may raise flags — particularly if you're already under scrutiny or involved in a high-value property deal.
Additionally, property transactions above ₹30 lakh are reported by sub-registrars to the tax authorities. You should also check the circle rate of the property, as it may push the reportable value higher — even if your declared sale/purchase price is lower.
Please note, under Section 269ST and 269SS, any cash transaction of ₹2 lakh or more (whether in one go or in aggregate for a single transaction/event) is prohibited. Violations can result in penalties for both the payer and the recipient — which in this case could affect both you and the seller.
If cash is absolutely unavoidable, ensure you maintain a clear paper trail:
Withdrawal slips
Bank statements
ITR copies
Any communication with the seller
Lastly, ensure that the seller is also compliant with Section 269ST, as penalties apply even if only one party is found violating the provision.

I had a net negative income for the FY 2023-24 and, therefore, did not file an income tax return for that year. My trading activity during FY 2023-24 included a short-term profit of ₹38,773.9, a long-term loss of ₹5,609.4 in equities, and a realized loss of ₹47,036.75 in options trading, with an options turnover of ₹6,34,243.25. I did not have any other source of income during the year. Since I traded in options but did not file an income tax return, could this lead to any issues or trouble for me?
