Quick Summary
Section 80TTA of the Income Tax Act allows for a deduction on interest earned from savings accounts, up to a maximum of £10,000. If you earn more interest than this, the excess amount will be subject to tax. For example, if you earn £15,000 in savings interest, you can claim a deduction of £10,000, leaving £5,000 as your taxable amount.
