Regarding Fdr

This discussion addresses how to account for a fixed deposit (FDR) principal amount from a previous financial year (2018-19) when filing the return for the current year (2019-20). The consensus is that only the interest earned on the FDR is taxable and should be declared as 'income from other sources' in the income tax return. It's advised to check Form 26AS for any TDS deducted on the interest and claim it accordingly. The principal amount itself is not declared as income.
