My friend has online filled his income tax return ( ITR4 ) on 31-7-2011. At that time he has not mentioned the TDS deducted by his bank on the fixed deposit interest. However he has mentioned the interest amount in his income under the head Income from Other Sources.
Now after verifying 26AS online, it is noticed that the bank has deducted TDS of Rs2100 during the year which was not intimated to the assessee.
Should we file revised return and mention the TDS ? There is no tax liability for this year due to investments. In that case can the TDS be refunded ? please advise.

You can file the revise return u/s 139(5) as the original return was filed u/s 139(1) within specified due date. You will get the refund and also there is no penalty.
