Deduction for senior citizen interest on deposits expanded to allow specified relief for deposit interest while excluding other savings deductions. Insertion of Section 80TTB provides senior citizens a capped deduction for interest from bank deposits (savings and fixed), co operative banking society deposits (including co operative land mortgage and land development banks), and post office deposits, effective from 1 April 2019. Claiming this deduction precludes claiming the alternative savings interest deduction, and deposits held by or on behalf of a partnership, association of persons or body of individuals do not entitle partners or members to the deduction when computing their individual total income.
