As per Income Tax reckoner income tax deduction u/s80c is available on fixed deposit of five years from scheduled bank.

Question is:- that can we get deduction on fixed deposit of five year issued from any bank whether private, nationalised or scheduled bank, because even private banks are issuing tax benifit Fixed deposits for 5 year.

Please guide

Thanks in advance
