The moot question why the F.D. was made with the bank. If it is directly related with business, you can claim 8% on the Turnover of Rs. 97.50 Lacs. Otherwise you have calculate profit on Rs. 85 Lacs and the balance amount shall be treated as income from other source. However, you can claim Interest and Remuneration from the Total Profit.
