but don't you think that 58A provisions of Companies Act. will be applicable to this situation.
Also is that company is liable for deduction of TDS on amount of Interest paid?

Dear Pradnya
No, Section 58A is not applicable as it is applicable for deposits from public and members without advertisement.In your case it is advance from customers.
Yes, TDS on Interest is to be deducted.
However as per Provisions of Section 194A in case of Interest on deposits with a public company which is formed and registered in India with the main object of carrying on the business of providing long-term finance for construction or purchase of houses in India for residential purposes 16[and which is eligible for deduction under clause (viii) of sub-section (1) of section 36 is not Required to deduct Tax.
But Since in Your Case it is not interest on deposit, Tax has to be deducted.
