Thanks for the update

good updatation                             

what use of allowing tax exemption on INTEREST ON  post savings bank a/c?

HOW MANY PEOPLE CARRY HUGE BAL. IN P.O S.B ACCOUNTS? WHY NOT EXTEND THIS BENEFIT TO THE POOR OLD SENIOR CITIZENS WHO SURVIVE ON P.O MI.I.S, AND S.C.S.S IN THESE DAYS OF ALARMING INFLATION.?

GOVT. BABUS AND POLITICIANS ARE  ALWAYS GENROUS ON LESS USEFUL OR NO USEFUL EXEMPTIONS  TO THE CITIZENS AND BLIND TO THE NEEDY AND PURPOSEFUL DEDUCTIONS AND EXEMPTIONS?

LET  GOD MAKE WISDOM PREVAIL IN THEIR  MINDS.

V.R.RAO

My client has many post office saving accounts each with interest around Rs. 300 to 500, then the exemption will be available cumulative or for anly one account.

Wether interest on recurring deposit account of post office exempt u/s 10(15) or not???

 

yes
