Kindly clarify whether interest received on RFC deposit is taxable? If it is taxable, is there any relaxation?

Yes, Interest on RFC Deposit Taxable Under income tax Act.
In case returning NRI is Resident But Not Ordinary resident of India(RBNOR) (i.e. for a period of 9 years following the year of return) then, Interest income of RFC account is exempt from Tax.
Thanks & Regard
