Fixed deposits are exemt from income tax..but when the fixed deposit matures is the income from it taxable ??

WHEN THE FD MATURES YOU RECEIVE TWO THINGS:
1. Your principal amount
2. Your interest

Interest is taxable, not the principal.

Now, Interest is not eligible for deduction u/s 80L as these are taken out in the new finance act.
Fixed Deposits per se are not exempt from tax, However when you invest in FD for a specified period (5 yrs or more) you can claim deduction of that amt (up to 100k) under Chapter VI-A (80-C). However the interest on it would be taxable on accrual basis.
