My son is 17 now and will be major by next July (2016). Can I invest money in FDs in his name now for a period of 1 year and avoid tax on interest inocme by way of filing tax return for the FY 2016-17 (ay 2017-18) in my son's name?

You can do it, it is not avoidance of tax. You can call it tax planning which is legal and there is problem in doing it with suitable instruments.
