Interst on savings as well as rd exempt(not fd)

Section 80TTA is titled as ‘Deduction in respect of interest on deposits in savings account’ in the Income Tax Act.

Here are the salient features of this section:

  • You can claim exemption on up to Rs. 10,000 received as interest on your savings account deposits.
  • The savings account can be held in any of the following financial institution:
  • Bank
  • Cooperative society
  • Post office
  • You can claim exemption on any number of savings accounts as long as the total amount you are seeking exemption on is less than Rs. 10,000.
  • Considering the above citing facts, it is very well established that one cannot cliam Interest on Fixed Deposit irrespective of threshold. 

SECTION 80 TTA ONLY & ONLY FOR SAVING INTREST, THE INTREST OF FDR & RECURING DEPOSIT HAVE NOT COME UNDER THIS SECTION .
