The answer

There is no on land if it is for saving or building, but only if it is for trade. Net annual income is subject to zakat if it reaches the and a hawl (lunar year) has passed on it. To facilitate this, zakat can be paid on all existing money when the first hawl is due, even if a hawl has not passed on some of it, and this would be considered an advance zakat payment.
