Post office savings bank interest is exempt up to Rs. 3,500 (in an individual account) and Rs. 7,000 ( in a joint account) under section 10(15)(i). You can show remaining amount as Income from Other sources and claim deduction of the same u/s 80TTA.

yes you can take exemption of intt of post office saving u./s 10(15) for single rs. 3500/- and balance amount of intt. can deduct u/s 80TTA upto rs. 10000/-
