Arun Jaitley mentioned during Union Budget 2017-18 that cash transactions to be capped at Rs 3 lakh. He made it clear that any cash transaction beyond Rs 3 lakh will become illegal.

However, Centre has proposed cap legal cash transaction limit at Rs 2 lakh now. This proposal is one of the 40 amendments recommended to the Finance Bill.

In case if people were caught violating the rule, A penalty of equal amount would be levied on them. This is a major step to collect more revenue in the form of taxes and cut down corruption.
