Quick Summary
If you withdraw a Fixed Deposit before its maturity date, the principal amount you get back is not taxable. However, any interest earned on the FD up to the point of withdrawal is considered taxable income. Banks often charge a penalty for early closure, which is deducted from the interest earned. You should declare the net interest income in your tax return.

FD as such is not taxable. For pre-closure of FD, banks usually charge penalty which will be a cut from the interest. Net interest income is taxable.

Sachin you have to find out the interest income for the relevant year and offer only the interest income for taxation
the return of pricipal amount is not taxable on premature withdrawal
