Quick Summary
This discussion clarifies the taxability of interest earned on Fixed Deposits (FDs), including term deposits and recurring deposits. It advises using the Annual Information Statement (AIS) for income tax filing, provided it matches the bank's interest certificate. The thread also addresses potential shortfalls in advance tax payments due to unconsidered FD interest, and the resulting interest charges under sections 234B and 234C of the Income Tax Act.

Go with AIS report, if the interest certificate issued by bank matches with it.

I have two questions on the subject.

1. Is this income taxable?
2. If yes, then ..... One of my colleagues has gained interest of about 65,000/- from Postal term deposit, which is duly reflected in his AIS. While paying the advance tax, this amount could not be taken into account, resulting in a shortfall of about 20,000/-
Now, will this shortfall invite an interest u/s 234B/ 234C ?

1. Yes, taxable.

2. Yes, chargeable.
