It is taxable in the year of credited and interst upto 9.5% is exempt as per income tax act,1961 there is no change of rate for A.y. 2010-11.

interst upto 9.5% is exempt as per income tax act.

it is exempt up to 9.5% as per it act 1961 & employer cont. int.  taxable in the head of salary & employee cont. int. in the head of other sources

Interest  in excess of 9.5% in case of Employer Contribution is taxable in the hands of employee under the head Income from other sources

if interest crosses 9.5% per annum it should taxable.

Interest in excess of 9.5% is Taxable.
