Along with this, UPI transactions of many users will also be stopped. Let’s know what the whole thing is.
These UPI transactions will be stopped

You will get more benefit on FD
From April 1, the bank will not deduct TDS on interest up to Rs 1 lakh on FD, RD and other such saving schemes.

Changes in interest rates
From April 1, the interest rates of savings accounts and FDs of many banks are going to change. Many banks like SBI, HDFC Bank, Indian Bank, IDBI Bank, Punjab & Sind Bank have changed the interest rates of their FDs and special FDs, which you can check by visiting the bank’s website.
Dividend will be lost if PAN-Aadhaar is not linked
If your PAN-Aadhaar is not linked, then from April 1, you will not get dividend on stocks. Along with this, TDS deduction on capital gains will also increase and no credit will be given in Form 26AS, due to which refund will take more time.

SEBI has also tightened the rules for opening mutual fund and demat accounts. According to which, all users will have to re-verify their KYC and nominee details, failing which your account can be frozen. However, it can be re-activated, but there may be a problem if the nominee details are not available.
