If I invest Rs.6 lakhs now in Fixed Deposit for a period of 333 days at around 7.40 percent interest rate. How much will be the TDS deduction and when will it be deducted? At maturity or a part in this FY and some part in next FY?

Ans: Whenever your interest earned on FD crosses threshold limit as applicable, based on IT rules, TDS will be deducted by the bank.

Good Day Sir Parikh Sir, I am 47 years old and I am having FDR in three / four banks on which presently no TDS is being deducted by the banks as the interest income is under Rs.40000/- in each bank. I want to get the TDS deducted @ 10% by the bank on my FDR income even if the interest amount is below Rs.40000/- The banks are mentioning that the Computer system does not deduct TDS below Rs.40K. Sir, can you guide any Rules / Procedure so that the banks may be intimated through a letter to deduct at least 10% TDS on my FDR income. This will help me for not depositing TDS from my Saving account and the same is deducted from the interest income earned on FDRs. Kindly guide how can I get my TDS deducted on FDRs below certain exemption limit as per Govt. policy
Ans: Hello Amit,

I understand your concern and it's great to see your proactive approach towards tax compliance.

As per the Income Tax Act, banks are required to deduct TDS on interest income when it exceeds Rs. 40,000 in a financial year (Rs. 50,000 for senior citizens). This is an automated process and banks follow this rule strictly.

However, if you wish to have TDS deducted even when your interest income is below Rs. 40,000, you may not be able to do so through the bank directly as their systems are designed to comply with the existing tax laws and automatically deduct TDS only when the interest income crosses the specified threshold.

That being said, you can still manage your tax liability effectively. You can calculate the tax on your interest income and pay it as Self Assessment Tax or Advance Tax, as applicable, through the Income Tax Department's e-payment facility. This way, you can ensure that your tax payment obligations are met in a timely manner.

Please consult with a tax advisor or chartered accountant for personalized advice based on your specific circumstances.

I hope this information is helpful.

Ans: you are in duress. a relationship as defined by you is not worth being in one. please break off, block him from all our touchpoints - social media/ phone etc...if need be change your phone number. heal yourself, focus on your self, become financially independent, feel good about yourself before you find your person.
