If a fixed deposit holder finds that his total interest income from fixed deposits won’t fall within the overall taxable limits, he should immediately inform this to the concerned bank and ask them not to deduct the TDS from his fixed deposit account. In case of Individuals, this can be done by submitting form 15H. In case there is an amount deducted by way of TDS on the interest earned on you fixed deposit, prior to your submission of application of exemption, banks will issue TDS certificates which can be used by the fixed deposit holders to get refund while filing his/her income tax.
