Sec 234 B & 234 B would apply. Since you have not paid any tax, straight away apply 7%(1% for months, i.e, the due date of paying Advance tax.) and 1.5& if you pay this month itself.
Section 234 B : Interest payable for default in payment of advance tax
An assessee who is liable to pay advance tax has failed to pay such tax or where the advance tax paid by such assessee is less than ninety per cent of the assessed tax, the assessee shall be liable to pay simple interest at the rate of one per cent for every month or part of a month for period from the date on which the payment of advance tax became due on the amount of shortfall in the amount of advance tax paid.
In simple words, interest @ 1% per month is payable on the amount of income tax paid after the end of the financial year.
& Section 234 C : Interest payable for deferment of advance tax
Interest is payable @ 1% for 3 months on the amount of shortfall in payment of advance tax became due on 15th June (applicable only to Corporate assessees), 15th September (all assesses) and 15th December (all assessees) and interest @ 1% on the amount of shortfall in payment of advance tax became due on 15th March (all assessees).
Please note that in case of salaried employees, the advance tax liability is to be computed on the income other than salary income. TDS deducted by the employer is not to be adjusted against this liability.

If Tax payable is Rs. 10,000,:-
Then interest would be:-
Shortfall= Tax Payable- Adv Tax Paid= 10,000
234 B:-
1st Installment- Rs. 300 (10000 X 1% X 3months)
2nd Installemnt- Rs. 300 ((10000 X 1% X 3months)
