If it's a tax savings FD of SBI, a maximum deduction of Rs.1 lakh can be claimed u/s-80C for the A.Y. 2014-15, provided it shouldn't be withdrawn before 5 years due to its lock in period criteria.

nothing is mentioned in the FD certificate whether it is tax saving or not.

@ Pooja Kaim : Deduction u/s-80C is available on payment or invetment(s) made every year & not during the whole lock in period. Like if u have made investment in tax savings FD which have 5 years lock in period, u can claim deduction u/s-80C for the first year only & not in all the five years. Similarly in life inusrance policies, u have to pay the premium every year to claim deduction in each year & even after 2 years of lock in period, u can claim the deduction provided u continued ur premium payment..
