19 March 2009 there is no specific provision regarding taxability of deep discount bonds before maturity. As it is the premature redemption has nothing to do with taxability. If bonds purchased are in the nature of 'taxfree', then the amount of interest would be taxfree and vice versa.
in your case Rs.45000 would be taxable
