For the month of March 2016, interest on Excise duty will be 15% per anum.

The rate of interest at the rate of 15% will only be applicble after passing of the finance bill . Please refer to S.T Notifications.

Above rate calculation is regarding interest on Excise. While Mr. Hanamshet, is saying about the interest rate on Service Tax. For your kind information, Changes in Excise and Customs is applicable just after the budget date, while changes in service tax is applicable after passing of the budget.
