Do I need to pay tax on the amount of savings I have in the bank?
In India, assuming that you have already paid relevant [Income/Capital gains] tax and then deposited the funds into your Bank [Savings or Current] Account; there is NO INCOME tax payable for amount.   Any interest earned on this amount is taxable as per Income Tax rules and would be taxed at your income slabs.   Wealth Tax is exempt from funds in your Savings Account. I am not sure about the funds into Current Account of individual, beyond a limit they may get counted and become part of Wealth Tax.
