1)Yes, it is taxable under the head income from other sources subject to some exemption. 2)Exemption allowed : exempt to a certain extent. Rs 15,000 or 1/3rd of the pension received -whichever is less is exempt from tax , So you are exempted for Rs 15000 out of total pension received, and balance taxable 3)ADD interest income in other sources, Your income treated under income from other sources.
