Hi Sanjay,

 

(I guess, your first query must have been solved)

 

In respect of second question - you can submit Form 15G to Bank to avoid TDS on interest on FDR, if you are sure and able to show to Bank, that your taxable income including such interest is below exemption limit.

 

(In any way, if your interest income is less than Rs. 10,000/-, Bank will not deduct TDS on that, subject to regulations by Bank)

Thanx everybody for sharing valueable information.
