In India, senior citizens are entitled to receive some additional benefits than most of the other individuals do not and rightly so.
On bank fixed deposits senior citizens receive an extra interest rate of 0.5 per cent. Interest rates could vary when it comes to company fixed deposits, but it is certainly more than other individuals.
Senior citizens have to submit form 15H for claiming TDS exemption on their fixed deposits.

Recently, government hiked the interest rate of the the Senior Citizens Savings Scheme which is only meant for senior citizens and provides a decent interest rate of 9.3 per cent.
