The
Reserve Bank of India (RBI) on Thursday directed banks to accept tax dues
in cash under the domestic black money declaration scheme which closes on

It was brought to the RBI's notice by the government that "banks are hesitant" in allowing deposit of large amounts of cash by declarants under the scheme.
