## Questions and answers from the visible page

### What is the NSC tenure?

5 years, fixed — NSC cannot be prematurely withdrawn except in specific cases like the holder's death or court order.

### Is NSC interest taxable?

Yes, but the interest for the first 4 years is deemed reinvested and qualifies for Section 123 (80C) deduction in that year, so effectively only the final year's interest is taxed without a matching deduction.

### Is NSC better than a tax-saving FD?

Both offer similar Section 123 benefits and comparable rates. NSC has no premature withdrawal option, while tax-saving FDs also lock in for 5 years but some banks offer slightly different terms — compare current rates before choosing.
