I am 80 years old and now living at Chennai,moved away from madurai where I have my NSS account. I want to close the same on or after 01-04-2019. what is the TDS rate payable. The said scheme is with drawn and only interest is getting accrued without any TDS effected. Now the I have the doubt whether TDS is to be effected on the interest content as in bank deposits or on the entire amount with drawn.
My DOB : 23-051939. I can claim excemption for AY 2019-21 upto Rs5 lacs. if the interest alone is taxable, my total income will fall below Rs5lacs. If the entire amount (both the capital and the interest accrued) is subject to tax on withdrwal, I have to pay tax. So i raise my point for clarification.
