    Your query is not clear, what I understood is that from it that Upto Rs. 1,60,000 - No Income Tax. Your income is Rs. 1,95,000 (Rs 35000 More than standard tax rebate). So your taxable income is Rs. 35,000. If you invest Rs. 35000 in NSC, you will be eligible for income tax deductions under sec 80C (which is maximum 1,00,000). So no tax at all.

    Total Income - Rs. 1,95,000
    Standard Decuctions - Rs 1,60,000
    Less: Section 80C Deductions
    NSC Rs. 35,000
    Taxable Income - Zero.

    Maturity period for NSC is 6 years that you can encash it after 6 years.
    For tax deductions under sec 80C, you need to deposit money in PPF, NSE, Life Insurance, ELSS etc in that financial year again.
