Interest on Bank deposits 80C

This query is : Resolved 

10 April 2008 Please to tell me is interest on Fixed deposits (Period 1 year) are eligible for deduction under section 80C?

10 April 2008 Interest on fixed deposit is taxable under the head "Income from Other sources"

10 April 2008 No you are not eligible for deduction under section 80C.


10 April 2008 THERE IS NO EXEMPTION UNDER 80C FOR INTEREST ON BANK FIXED DEPOSITS IRRESPECTIVE OF THE PERIOD OF DEPOSIT.
WHAT IS EXEMPTED UNDER 80 C IS DEPOSIT ITSELF IF MADE FOR A PERIOD OF 5 YEARS IN ANY SCHEDULED BANK PROVIDED THE BANK GIVES A CERTIFICATE TO THAT EFFECT.USUALLY SUCH DEPOSITS QUALIFYING FOR 80 C EXEMPTION ARE CALLED TAX SAVER DEPOSITS.
