If you invest in certain instruments like bank fixed deposit, recurring deposit and corporate deposit, the interest you earn is taxed. Banks and post offices will deduct TDS (Tax deducted at source) if your interest income exceeds Rs 10,000 in a financial year. If you are a senior citizen, this limit is Rs 50,000 a year. Bank deducts TDS on your interest, even if your total income is not taxable. If you submit Form 15G (for those less than 60 years of age) and 15H (for those above 60 years) to the bank requesting them not to deduct TDS, then TDS will not be deducted.
