According to Sec 64(1)(iv) Interest on FD of wife will be clubbed if transferred for inadequate consideration
To escape this you can show that she has taken 0% interest loan from you
Interest on daughters FD will be clubbed only if the transfer of asset i.e FD is recoverable
If you make irrecoverable transfer to your daughter and then the money is invested then interest from it will not be clubbed in your income (sec 62)
Wife PPF as exemption?
EDITED : PPF exemption can also be availed (thanks Mr. Vineet Kumar Sharma for pointing out the mistake)

Income from revocable (ie. if it contains any provision for retransfer of income or asset to the transferer) transfer of assets is taxable in the hands of the transferer as per Sec. 62.
According to Sec. 56 (2) (viii), money can be transferred to relatives without attracting tax to the recepient. But income from investing the above money is still hit by Sec. 62, if the transfer is revocable.
