    Obviously it has to be documented . BEcause its your money , not your fathers . the alternative is to officially gift it to your father 🙂

    Sir,
    Little clarification required.If I transfer funds from my acc to my fathers,is it required to be documented?Currently its a single acc.

    Generaly Senior Citizens get additional .25% or .5 % on interest rates,

    They may have to provide age proof for the same.

    To do this you can open a join FD account , with ur father as a First acc. holder and you can give cheque from ur saving account. The interest earned will be considered as your fathers.
