The department will grant you refund after processing your TDS returns. The circular 285 is no more in effect after 1.4.2010.
Section 200A has been inserted, and on the plain reading it seems that you need not to claim even refund also. On the basis of quarterly TDS returns filed by the deductor and after making certain adjustments of short payment etc, the department will isue an intimation. From the proviso it can be appreciated that the department will conclude this work within one year from the end of the financial year in which the statement (TDS Return) is filed.
