I’m retired in Mar 2018, 58 year plus and have no income from salary business or profession, investments/deposits or rent.
I have not withdrawn my PF, as I will get a better, safe secure and higher interest (since it’s maintained by a trust upto 60years of age I will get interest on my balance) than elsewhere and unlikely to withdraw in this financial year.
Can someone clarify whether I have to pay advance tax as by the end of the year my interest income from PF is likely to be around Rs.6,00,000/. Should I pay pro-rat a tax now, or can I start paying from December 15,2018 onwards.
