INTEREST ACCRUED ON TERM DEPOSIT UNDER SECTION 80C IS TAXABLE AS INTEREST UNDER THE HEAD INCOME FROM OTHER SOURCES.

THE MATURITY AMOUNT INCLUDES PRINCIPLE AMOUNT INVESTED AND THE INTEREST ELEMENTS ONLY, BOTH OF THEM ARE EXEPT FROM TAX.

INTEREST ACCRUED ON ABOVE TERM DEPOSIT U/S 80C WILL NOT BE QUALIFIED AS REVINVESTMENT AND HENCE NOT ELIGIBLE FOR DEDUCTION UNDER SECTION 80C.
