Pune (Maharashtra) [India], July 12: Fixed Deposit (FD) investors who had failed to link their PAN card to their Aadhaar account before July 1, 2023, are now facing repercussions. They have been disallowed from submitting Form 15 G/H against their FDs. Due to this, a TDS of 20 per cent has been imposed on them instead of the usual 10 per cent.
