Normally it is taxable. But if you are a salaried employee, and you have no other source of income other than salary and interest from savings Bank A/c upto Rs. 10,000/- and TDS is deducted by the employer and no refund claim is there, then you need not file the returns. Hence it wont come under the tax sheild in this manner. Else, it is taxable,. There is no exemption as such.
