  1. Hello Mr. Suresh,

    My bank says they deducts tax at source as per the Income Tax regulations prevalent from time to time. However, I would like to know, I should still be declaring all the FDs while filing the tax returns?

    1. Hi Nitin, Bank will deduct 10% TDS on your bank FD if you have given PAN card, else the TDS would be 20%. When you are filing ITR, the first step (which started from last year) is getting the TDS certificate from TRACES which includes all taxes deducted by various bank on your bank FD’s and any income tax paid by your employer on your salary income. Now based on your income tax slab, you may need to pay only differential amount .e.g. If you have deposited Rs 100,000 in ICICI Bank and given PAN number. They would have paid you Rs 9,000 as bank interest, however deducted Rs 900 as tax and your cumulative interest amount would have been only Rs 8,100. Now when you file ITR and check the TRACES certificate, this Rs 900 would be there. Now if you are falling in 20% tax bracket, simply pay another Rs 900 on this bank FD interest as tax while filing ITR and then indicate the income tax reference number in ITR and file it.

  2. Hello Suresh,

     

     I regularly follow your mutual fund advice..I would like to know more on Monthly Income Schemes/Plan..Can you please share some details on the same?

    Today i have a job and i am earning well but in case if i am fired, i need a secondary source of income month on month basis.How to create that as the details on MIS/MIP will help?

     

    Regards,

  3. I like to bring to your notice, one more valuable information, i seen recently. As i can see, among the Banks, Repco is providing its highest Interest, 10% for 1.5 Years for Women (Generally for all ages) and 9.6 for General public.

    I also came across a really different term in FD investment, which is the Floating Interest. They provide the longest term FD which is 5 – 20 years of FD, named Crown FD. The Initial Interest is 9.25.

    Hope this information helps us get even more better investment options from you. Looking forward. Bye.

  4. Why not indicate rates of HDFC Ltd alongside the rates of HDFC Bank for a quick comparison ? The Cummulative Int Rates / Platinum Deposit Rates of HDFC Ltd  are certainly better ! Do Check.

    1. Agreed Bakshi. However bank to bank comparison I am already giving it. What you said is HDFC Ltd (company) Vs HDFC Bank (a bank) which may not be comparable though both are from same group.
