Savings bank and recurring deposit interest

This query is : Resolved 

24 September 2013 Dear Sir,

Is the interest earned on a Savings Bank Deposit or Recurring Deposit in Schedeuled Commercial Banks/Cooperative Bank/Post Office, taxable, under IT Act?

Are there any ceilings in this regard?

What is the position if the deposit in question is an NRO (Non Resident Ordinary) deposit ( the deposits opened by NRIs to deposit local Indian Income, like rent, interest,dividend on investments,Agri Income etc.,) ?

24 September 2013 it is taxable as income from other sources.

24 September 2013 In the case of individual and HUF assessees, exemption for interest on savings bank account's maintained with bank and post office can be claimed vide section 80TTA.

The exemption limit is :-
i) the actual interest if less than Rs. 10,000/-
ii) if more than Rs. 10,000/-, exemption is limited to Rs. 10,000/-

24 September 2013 Int from recurring or any deposits other then savings a/c is not allowed for availing sec 80TTA benefit.

24 September 2013 Agree with the above experts.
