IF a senior citizen lady having FD of 70lac in bank, maturity tenure is one year, and auto renew every year.
She submitted Form 15H, but according to bank she has to pay TDS due to exceeding interest.
As per my knowledge, interest upto 250000 is tax free and most of her FD's are invested in september-oct (mid of year)so that interest be divided in two financial years.

If we can break the FD's and do the FD's of 20 lac each in different banks, then the interest amount not exceeds in a single FD. But PAN card, DO THEY SEARCH WITH PAN or only check the interest in a single FD, we give them the form 15H.
And if in current year we file the return for interest than next year shoul we present form 15H, or we have to every year file return?
Sh is an housewife, and earn this amount by long years of postal and bank inetrest.

in this case she must not invest all the amounts in fd only as full int will be taxed...only after making cal int upto 250,000 she must invest fd and then invest in sec 80C various options are there like PPF, 5 years fd etc...suitable tax planning is to be done for that u must consult a CA which wll help in saving tax.
