What is the rule of tax deduction on FD
Tax is deducted from 0 to 30 percent on fixed deposits. It is deducted based on the income tax slab of the investor. If you earn more than Rs 10,000 in a year, you will have to pay 10 percent tax on your FD. However, for this, you have to submit a copy of your PAN card. If PAN card is not deposited, then 20% TDS is deducted on it. If the investor wants to avoid tax deduction, for this he should submit Form 15A to his bank. This applies to those who do not fall under any income tax slab. Senior citizens should submit Form 15H to avoid tax deduction.
