I am a senior citizen(+60 yrs). After my retirement from a PSU, I have deposited some amount in a Public Sector Bank(BOB), which will fetch Rs 1,80,000/- interest per year and payment will be made quarterly. 1)As per the 2009-2010 budget, how much amount I have to pay as IT. I have no deposits under any IT debate category. 2)1st quarterly FD interest, in this financial year, is made on 29th June 2009 deducting about Rs.4000/- as TDS. 3)If the TDS amount is higher than my actual income tax for the whole year, how could I get back the amount in my S/B account, without any hassle, as due to my health problem, my movement is well restricted by Doctor. Thanks.

If you are below 65 years then there will be no tax on the income upto 160,000.
AND if you are 65 years and above then there will be no tax upto income of 240,000.
