Dear Pratik
Under CGAS 1988 - Capital Gain Accounts Scheme 1988 is applicable to eligible taxpayers who wish to claim exemption u/s 54 for capital gain .
As per this scheme
1. Interest is not exempted under Income Tax Act, 1961.TDS will be deducted at applicable rates on TDRs.
2. Interest earned from this scheme will be treated as income from other sources.

No only the funds that result in cg and funds deposited in cgas should be utilised for claiming deduction u/s 54.
The interest earned would be taxable as income from other sources. Also such interest is subjected to TDS. I.e interest earned is 10000 or more, then TDS will be deducted on the same
