17 June 2008 A individual who is a salaried employee opens joint SB A/c with his wife who has no income of her own. His wife's name appears as the first A/c holder. Both of them individually can operate the account.

The question is - should interest earned on such deposit be taxed in the hands of husband?

If yes, kindly provide me with Income Tax section reference.

Thanks.
