08 July 2015Kindly advise me whether the interest accrued on savings a/c is taxable, as I have multiple savings a/c in various banks which is much higher than 10000. does it become income and if so should it be clubbed with FD interest as other sources of income. thanks GR Babu

Sec 80TTA, Interest on Saving bank accounts is deductible upto Rs 10000 (FD is not included here). Rest is taxable as other sourse income.

BUT IF TAXABLE SLAB IS 20% OR MORE & THE BANK HAS CUT TDS ON 10%, IT IS OUR RESPONSIBILITY TO PAY SELF ASSESSEMENT TAX FOR BOTH FD & SAVING BANK

Int. on SB a/c firstly will be included in Income from others sources to find out gross total income . Then u/s 80 TTA , if amt of int.> 10,000/- , Rs. 10,000/- will be rebate from Gross income and excess of 10,000/- will be charged for i-tax @ 10% . In case of Int. on FD/RD , there is no rebate , full amt. will be added in Income from other source.
