It is taxable.

Hi veenu, as per sec 56 , interest received through saving bank account is fully taxable under the head other sources. thanks and regards suraj pahuja.

Saving Interest is Taxable under Income from Other Sources under Section 56.

People often get confused over Saving's Interest because there is a provision in IT Act exempting Saving bank Interest from TDS.
