14 February 2014 well for accounting and tax purposes, you need to route it through P&L account first.

So first entry shall be

Accrued Interest A/c Dr
To Interest on FD A/c

Later you can transfer Accrued Interest A/c to FD

Bank FD A/c (A/c No) Dr
To Accrued Interest A/c

14 February 2014 see you have already given effect to P&L. when you transfer from accrued interest to FD, the transaction wont get routed through P&L.
