09 February 2013 the liability to deposit tax arises within 1 week from the end of the month in which deduction is made...

So in this case your liability arises as on 07-01-2013, but you deposit as on 14-2-13, 15-02-13, 16-02-13..

it means you need to pay simple interest @ 1.5% p.m. for two month in all the three cases.
