Due to pending demand  of  Income tax of AY 2007-08 we have deposited Rs.83000  in 2/2015 and Rs. 17000  of AY2014-15 refund adjusted. Now ITAT has given order in our favour and we got Refund of Rs.83000+17000=100000/-. My Question is -can we get interest 6% p.a. on above amount for the period it hold by IT dept?
