Interest of FD gets accured annualy, and the same will reflect in your PAN till she attains majority. Till then you will be liable to pay tax over it.

What if interest accrued I get at the time of maturity , and who will be liable to pay taxes on interest accrued at th time of maturity say 4 or 5 years whether it is a fd or rd

Please suggest in both cases fd or rd

 

If the interst doesn't reflect in your Form 26AS, you have option to declare it at the time of maturity,
