• TDS in respect of interest earned on fixed deposits, is deducted on the basis of the total interest projected on the aggregate of fixed deposits of the customer, for the financial year.
• If the total projected interest in a financial year crosses the TDS Threshold limit INR 40,000/- (INR 50,000/- for Senior Citizen) in a financial year., TDS is deducted proportionately from the existing fixed deposits at the time of interest application. This is in accordance with Section 194 A 3 (i) (a) of the Income Tax Act. For any further clarifications, please contact the base Branch.

For all new Reinvestment Term Deposits to be opened on and after 1st August, 2013 and all existing Reinvestment Term Deposits that may be renewed on and after 1st August, 2013, interest reinvested would be net of TDS and hence the maturity value would vary to that extent.
