11 May 2016 80TTA is not belongs to any taxable slab of 10%,20% or 30%. It is about saving bank account interest from whole bank accounts. If it is more than 10,000 then you have take as income from other sources and take deduction of Rs.10,000 excess amount will be in your taxable income and if interest amount is less then 10K then you have to take that amount as income as well as take as deduction under 80TTA which means you will not be paid any tax on your savings accounts interest.
