Mumbai (Maharashtra) [India], January 10: IDFC FIRST Bank announced its integration with Income Tax Portal to collect Direct Tax on behalf of Central Board of Direct Taxes (CBDT), Government of India. The Bank's customers can now benefit from an intuitive, hassle-free payment experience for paying their Direct Taxes, with easy access to downloadable challans, easy payments and instant payment confirmations.
The Bank's customers can use the user-friendly Retail and Corporate Internet Banking platforms of IDFC FIRST Bank, or pay the taxes at any IDFC FIRST Bank branch using Cash, Cheque or Demand Draft.
Speaking on the development, Chinmay Dhoble, Country Head - Retail Liabilities at IDFC FIRST Bank, said, "We are a Universal Bank and are building a complete suite of products and services to represent Universal Banking.
