Hello,

I understand that the interest from Senior Citizen Savings Scheme (SCSS) is fully taxable but the interest income of my parents is well below the IT slab for senior citizens.

1) Can they avoid TDS by sumitting Form 15H/15G?

2) If above is not possible, can they claim back the TDS from IT dept as refund by filing IT returns?

Regards,

Praveen
