Section 80TTB on NSC Interest

This discussion clarifies whether interest earned on National Savings Certificates (NSCs) can be claimed as a deduction under Section 80TTB of the Income Tax Act. While some users initially suggest claiming accrued interest under 'Income from other sources' and potentially using Section 80C for reinvested interest (except the final year), the consensus is that Section 80TTB is not applicable for NSC interest. The thread also touches upon other post office deposits like MIS, TD, and KVP in relation to 80TTB.
