Interest on fund transfer to spouse


This query is : Resolved 

Quick Summary
This discussion addresses whether a critical illness insurance payout can be transferred to a spouse's bank account for a fixed deposit. The primary concern is whether the interest earned on the fixed deposit will be considered taxable income and potentially 'clubbed' with the original recipient's income. The consensus suggests that fixed deposit interest is indeed taxable and likely to be clubbed, regardless of whose name the account is in.

19 January 2024 Dear Sir/madam,

Could you please advise on below query.
I have received critical illness insurance payout from insurance company.
Please advise whether I can transfer amount to wife bank account to make a fixed deposit. The reason I am asking is that interest on FD will get included in my taxable income if I do fixed deposit.

Thank you

Gajanan

19 January 2024 Savings bank interest earned will be clubbed in case of no fixed deposit.

19 January 2024 Sir, do you mean FD interest will not be clubbed? FD interest is taxable Invoice of spouse then?

19 January 2024 Fixed deposit interest also clubbed
