13 February 2013 In case of FDR interest is earned on the basis of duration of the FDR and Bank is generally crediting your account by the interest accruing on FDR on quarterly basis.
As such the value of the FDR increases.
.
So, interest is taxable on the basis of interest certificate issued for the year/period by the Bank in respect of the FDR.
