However these rules are also applicable to other deductors also to whom form 15H/15G have been submitted by depositors. 

Two cpc communication in this regards has been given as under for your ready reference.

As you may be aware that the depositors submit form 15G/H to the bank for no deduction of tax to be made on the interest payments made to them.
