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. |
