Tax Liabilities on RBL Bank Recurring Deposit

Any interest income earned by regular customers beyond Rs.40,000 per financial year and Rs.50,000 per financial year for senior citizens will be taxable. Income tax will be deducted at source (TDS) by the bank if the interest income on the FD and RD accounts across all the bank branches exceeds this limit at 10%.

TDS is now reduced from 10% to 7.5% due to the pandemic, effective from May 2020 until March 2021. You have the option to submit Form 15G or Form 15H, as applicable, and request the bank not to deduct tax at source if your annual income is within the basic exemption limit, i.e. Rs.2.5 lakh for regular customers and Rs.3 lakh for senior citizens.
