not true

interest on FD has two options

a) payable monthly/ quarterly/yearly as opted, where the interest amount is credited as per mandate to given bank account.

b) cummulative .....where the interest amount is added to principal ( after deduction of tax at source) on quarterly/ half yearly/ yearly basis ( follow the TDS certificate for exact details of credit and tax deducted)

if you have netbanking facility then you can check that there is no separate account for interest accured, but gross amount is shown in the respective TDR/FDR

method of interest credit to respective FD is same as payable to bank account, however in cummulative option the interest credited also get eligible for interest earning on addition with FD principal.

if you ask for interest certificate from bank, what they provide ........

FD value as on 01-04 ......

interest accured ................ less TDS ...........(.....)

closing balance as on 31-03 ........

 

does they give you break up of interest accured and interest added for year ? 

 

you can track the FD interest yearwise, where you can get that interest amount is increased per year, what does it indicates ? as per your views .only FD is eligible to earn interest and interest accured is idle money in bank without earning any interest .

for accounting ease we do bi-fircate the same to get clear picture of FD principal and interest accured, but sum of both will not make any change. 

think logically too ..........

I think entry pssed by Mr anshul is correct.

In my openion mudit is right..........we have to follow accrual system of accounting and we should keep in view AS-9...

F.D.A/C                                                DR.45,000

 TDS A/C                                              DR.5,000

                                    TO INTEREST RECEIVED ON F.D.  50,000

I understand entry of FD interest with TDS amount but what will the treatment at the time of maturity of FD?. i.e. Difference due to TDS amount in FD maturity value. I thing maturity value of FD is more than actual book value of FD. What will be the treatment of that difference amount?

hello the file that you attached is not clear what are you trying to explian

The correct entry will be as follows-

 

ACCRUED INTEREST ON FDR A/C       Dr.           45000

TDS RECEIVABLE A/C                               Dr.           5000

          TO INTEREST ON FDR A/C                                            50,000

 

FDR AMOUNT REMAINS FIXED TILL MATURITY SO CANNOT DR. FD A/C TILL MATURITY.

 

ON MATURITY OF FDR FOLLOWING ENTRY WILL BE PASSED-

 

BANK A/C     Dr.               13,00,000

   TO FDR A/C                                                12,50000

   TO ACCRUED INTEREST ON FDR A/C        50,000

 

THIS IS THE TOTALLY CORRECT WAY FOR FDR OR NSC OR PPF
