interest on ppf is exempt
Conceptually PPF Interest will be taxable in the hands of Mr X, Since deposits in PPF Account is made by X and no adequate consideration for the same is received by him from his wife. Hence Clubbing Provisions given u/s 64 will apply and interest will be taxable in hands of X.
Now since Interest Income on PPF Account is exempt from tax, no question of tax arises. But instead of PPF Account, had it been Fixed Deposit Interest, it would have been taxable in hands of X.
