11 April 2012 3 months i.e. 4.5%.

Its 1.5% per month or part thereof. So if not paid by 7th Interest will be considered from month or part in excess thereof. So For April to June 3 months and interest will be 4.5%.

11 April 2012 April month TDS shall be remitted to Govt, 7th of next month. So, May 7th is the due date for payment of April TDS.
If not paid on due date, interest will be charged at 1.5% per month or part there of. So, default is only 2 month, i.e., may and jun. Therefore, interest will be charged @3%

11 April 2012 Disagree. Due date 7th will be considered only if paid in time if paid after due date period of default will be calculated from the date of deduction. And therefore interest need to be paid for 3 months.

12 April 2012 Agree with Mr. Sanjay its for 3 months i.e. from the date of deduction to date till it is paid or part there of. Hence, it will be for 3 months.
Refer Sec 206(1A)(ii) for details.

12 April 2012 I agree with both experts,

1 day late will count into month

Dept. will clearly upload default status which is calculate penalty/interest from deduction to deposit
