HDFC Bank Wins Approval to Offer CGAS Deposits, Expanding Tax-Saving Parking Options
HDFC Bank has received government authorisation to accept deposits under the Capital Gains Accounts Scheme (CGAS), 1988, giving taxpayers a new bank channel to temporarily park eligible capital gains while preserving tax exemption benefits. The facility will allow customers to place unused proceeds in savings accounts or fixed deposits for up to three years and earn interest during the holding period.
