1. For co-operative society, income will be exempted as per sec 80P. Income which is in nature referred to in sec 80P will qualify for deduction provided conditions are satisfied.
2. As per sec 80P(2)(d) interest and dividend income received from other co-operative society will qualify for 100% deductions.
3. In your case you have mentioned as FD, if the deposit is made in another Co-operative society then 100% deductions will be available u/s 80P. If the same is made in the bank (other than a co-operative bank) then it will be subject to tax under the head Income from other sources.
4. The same applies to interest received from Savings.
5. Income up to Rs. 10,000 @ 10%
Income from Rs. 10,000 to Rs. 20,000 @ 20% + Rs.1,000
Income above Rs. 20,000 @ 30% + Rs. 3000
Surcharge @ 12% if the income exceeds Rs. 1 crore and Edu cess @ 4% will be applied after surcharge.
Please correct me if the above solution has an alternative view.
