Dear Raj,
Interest on NSC is treated as income but on the other hand it is allowed as dedutcion under 80C since the amount of interets gets reinvested.
If Income has not been shown on yeraly basis then entire interest will be taxable in the year of maturity.
If NSC is of 7/12 years then its interest is exempt u/s 10(15)
Investment in PPF is eligible u/s 80 C for tax benefit. Its interest is exempt u/s 10(15)
Investment in KVP is not eligible u/s 80C. Interest is taxable either on receipt or accural basis as per method of accounting.
