Income of you from all sources in (Financial Year 2012-13)Assessment Year 2013-14 is not taxable up to 2,50,000/-.So would also be case of your wife.It includes income from all sources inclusve interest.Where the total income exceeds Rs. 2,50,000/- but does not exceed Rs. 5,00,000/-10% of the amount by which the total income exceeds Rs. 2,50,000/- would be payable as income tax.Where the total income exceeds Rs. 5,00,000/- but does not exceed Rs. 10,00,000/- Rs. 25,000/- + 20% of the amount by which the total income exceeds Rs. 5,00,000/-would be payable as income tax.Where the total income exceeds Rs. 10,00,000/- Rs. 125,000/- + 30% of the amount by which the total income exceeds Rs. 10,00,000/-would be payable as income tax.
You can deposit any amount as Fixed deposit
in any Financial year.There is no bar, all depends on your income and savings in any FY.
Every penny of interest earned is TAXABLE
if your income from all sources crosses the exemption limit of 2,50,000/=for FY 12-13
AY 13-14.
You can make some exempted investments upto limit of one lac for reducing tax if your income exceeds the exemption limit.
You should have a pan card and a copy thereof should be provided to the banker.

On an Fix deposit of Rs 10 lacs interest earned may be from 75000/- to 125000( different Banks, different rate of interest). If you submit form 15H No tax would be deducted by the Bank at source. If total income increase 2,50,000 for senior citizen no tax burden.

FORM 15H submission in every year april will exempt you from tax deduction at source.
if the annual Bank F.D interest crosses Rs 250000/, the bank software is programmed to automatically deduct TDS.@10%.
so take it that Rs 25 lacs F.D gets you annual int.of Rs2.5 lakhs p.a.(assumed int.@10%)
for senior citizens savings /deposits, remember that either nomination/joint account is a must .
