19 June 2013 Interest is taxable. There are two types of account namely -
i) Deposit account -A. This is in the form of a savings account. Hence income tax will not be deducted from the interest,

ii) Deposit account -B. This is in the form of 'term deposit'. Therefore, TDS provisions u/s 194A attracts.
