First of all I must really appreciate the speed with which IT dept processed my Aunt's ITR1. There was a refund and the ITR has been processed within 4 days of filing and intimation received today. I am happy that systems are finally efficient!

The refund amt matches our filing data but they have shown interest of 174 Rs paid by IT dept which is actually added to the refund.

So from which date is this interest calculated? If ITR is processed within 4 days then just for 4 days interest can  not be 174, I guess? 

Do you have any idea? Thank you.

Quick Summary
A user expressed appreciation for the IT department's swift processing of an ITR1, which was completed within four days, resulting in a refund. However, they were querying the interest amount of £174 added to the refund, as it seemed disproportionate for such a short processing time. Other users clarified that interest on IT refunds is typically calculated from the beginning of the assessment year (1st April) until the date of refund generation, at a rate of 6% per annum, which explained the £174 amount for an £11,000 refund.

Is it 6% PA? because then for 3 months (Apr - Jun) it comes to around 175 and tallies.

@ CA Rashmi Gandhi  Thanks

What is  date of payment? Is it  start of financial year? because only then 175 interest amount matches to the refund amount which is abt 11K.

An amendment has inserted to Section 244A. Need to check the applicability. They may give interest in future from the date of filing and not from the beginning of AY

OK all right. For now  they seem to have given from 1-apr-22. 6% interest  and calculations nearly match.
