IS THERE ANY WAY TO RECEIVE THE WHOLE AMOUNT WITH PAYING INCOME TAX.

04 April 2018 Thanx Mem for your reply. But the Bank authorities are telling that they will deduct TDS on the interest of the deposit amount. What will I do in case they will deduct TDS.

04 April 2018 There are two aspects
1) FD amount received by you as nominee is tax exempt as it is in the nature of inheritance and no tax is payable on such amount

04 April 2018 2) Interest income from such FD which you get as the nominee will be added to your income and will be taxed as part of your income
