Refund of tax from foreign country is not an income earned hence not taxable. Check if any relief claimed on such payment.

No, it is not taxable in India. However, any foreign tax refund on which relief had been claimed in any earlier tax return in India need to be disclosed now in Schedule TR point 4 - amount as well as assessment year in which relief was allowed in India.
