We paid a commission of Rs.3000 as on 05/10/2013 and didn't deduct the T.D.S as it is less than Rs.5000 limit u/s 194H. Then we paid another amount of RS.5000 as on 10/11/2013 to same party. Now we have to deduct T.D.S on Rs.8000. I want to ask that whether I need to pay interest on T.D.S of Rs. 300 today??

Exactly, you got it right!
Since the first payment of ₹3,000 was below the threshold limit of ₹5,000 under Section 194H, you were not required to deduct TDS on that amount. When you make a second payment of ₹5,000 to the same party, the total crosses ₹5,000, so TDS applies on the aggregate amount of ₹8,000.
How to handle it in the return and interest:
You should show the ₹3,000 payment in your TDS return under the relevant month (October) as amount paid but with the reason for non-deduction: ‘Below threshold limit’.
Then, deduct TDS on ₹8,000 (or on the second payment amount) as applicable.
Since the first payment was legitimately exempt from TDS deduction, no interest is payable on TDS for the ₹3,000 payment.
So, no interest penalty arises because you followed the law correctly by not deducting TDS on the first payment.
