Hi Experts,

I have a query regarding Zero Coupon Bonds Taxability.

One of my relative had L&T Infra Zero Coupon Bonds 2011 series which matured this year and company deducted TDS under 194A.

I had a query regarding it's taxability since these bonds were notified bonds and investment in them was eligible for deduction u/s 80CCF.
As far as i know Notified Zero Coupon Bonds are taxable under Capital Gains and Non Notified ZCB are taxable as interest.

However i cannot find L&T name in here (https://www.incometaxindia.gov.in/Pages/utilities/zero-coupon-bond.aspx)

So shall this be shown as interest income in ITR or should be shown under Capital Gains?

Kindly Suggest in this regard

 

Thanks
