Hello Sir! My PF contribution (including VPF)exceeds the 2.5 lakhs limit meant for a private sector employee for tax exemption on the interest earned. Interest earned on the excess amount above 2.5 lakhs, has been taxed at 10% by the PF authorities. Do I have an additional tax liability on the interest earned (under income from other sources) as my tax bracket is 30 percent?

Ans: 01. PF authorities can not tax you in any way. They may have deducted some amount as TDS. While filing your ITR declare this excess amount of Interest, pay income tax on the same & also claim TDS credit, if it has been deducted by any authority.
Most welcome for any further clarifications. Thanks.

My son wants to do a program in undergrad in USA combining computer science and designing . What kind of majors he can choose, what are good universities for these programs .

Ans: I suggest you not to send him for under-graduate programme to USA. Let him be admitted to some reputed college/university of India for Computer/Electronics/Electrical Engg and let him go for f post-graduation ( i.e. MS from USA which is called graduation in USA). For Computer Engg one of the very good Universities is Georgia Tech, apart from that Texas A & M is there. Stanford and MIT are exceptionally good but for that his academic track record and GRE score have to be excellent.
