I am a retired Asoct Professor from Osmania University, Hyderabad and living in Hyderabad. I am 65 Yrs Old Female. I get pension from the University. I live in Hyderabad.
I have been investing in 5 year Tax Saving Deposit in Sate Bank of India and Canara Bank from 2012 ever year and I was claiming the benefit in my returns. I was also calculating Interest Accrued every year on these deposits and accordingly submitted my returns and paid tax. So far I have not defaulted on payment of tax and my returns have been accepted without any problem.
I have JUST COME TO KNOW that I was required furnish form 15H EVERY YEAR TO THE BANKS so that TDS from the deposits at the time of maturity is avoided. There is no problem in submitting forms 15H now for this year, is there any way I can furnish 15H for the previous years. How do I go about. Will the banks accept 15H for old years from AY 2012-13? Otherwise what can be done at the time of maturity of deposits to avoid TDS.
Another question is when the Deposit Matures after 5 Years, will TDS be on whole 5 Years interest or will it be on only the 5th year?
I would like to avoid getting TDS certificate on maturity nd claim refund.
Can anyone come forward with solutions.
Thanks in advance
