28 April 2015 Interest will be calculated from April, 2014 to (i.e., beginning of AY) month of your refund order.

In your case, the interest on refund will be calculated @6% * 8 months.

You shall consider your date of refund order and not to consider receipt of your refund order.

You can find the date of refund order in 'intimation u/s. 143(1)' which you received by email.

Normally, the date of refund order may be feb 2014 but you received in the month of April, 2014. Because, income tax department was stopped the refund process during the march 2015
