30 July 2012 1. The interest income shall be clubbed under the head Income from Other Sources.

2. Exemption of Rs. 1,500 shall be allowed against such income.

3. Your investment of Rs. 80,000 in LIC and Rs. 20,000 in PPF exhausts the limit of Rs. 1 lakh. So, the investment of Rs. 51,000 will not get you any additional benefit.
