the exemption limit for senior citizens is 2.5 lacs.  SO if they have surplus income of 1 lacs to invest then the interest income upto 3.5 lacs can be earned so that from 3.5 lacs 1lac would be deducted and balance would fall on the exemption limit.

In case of joint account, the interest income would be taxable in the hands of the first holder.
