Ours is a Pvt Ltd Company. We have a NRI Deposit. We filled 15G for the Financial year 2011-12 for interest allowed. But by mistake TDS on interest deducted @ 10% and paid.
As the income is below Rs.180000/- & NRI, we did not file his personal return.
Now, as the last date of filling I Tax return is 31.03.2013. And today is 01.04.2013, how can the TDS refund can be achieved in this case ?

Hereโs what you can do when TDS is deducted despite submitting Form 15G and the return filing date is already over:
---
### Situation:
* NRI deposit interest โ Form 15G submitted (actually, NRIs file Form 15H, but assuming form submitted) * TDS deducted @ 10% mistakenly even though income below exemption limit * Last date for filing Income Tax Return (ITR) for that year (31.03.2013) is passed * You want to claim refund of TDS deducted wrongly

### How to claim refund of TDS deducted after 15G?
1. **File Income Tax Return (ITR) anyway** Even if income is below taxable limit, you *should file ITR* to claim TDS refund. Filing return is the **only legal way** to get TDS refund from IT Dept.
2. **ITR to file:** For NRI individual with income from interest, use **ITR-2**.
3. **When to file:** Since last date is passed, you can file a **belated return** under Section 139(4) within one year from the end of the relevant assessment year.
* For FY 2011-12, assessment year is 2012-13, so you can file by 31 March 2014.
4. **Claim TDS refund in the return** Fill the details of income, TDS deducted (as per Form 26AS), and claim refund of excess TDS.
5. **Alternative:** If company deducted TDS wrongly, ask them to file **TDS correction statement** and issue revised TDS certificate, but this may take time and is not guaranteed.
