My grandmother had created Fixed Deposite in bank with her name as First Name and my mother's name as Second Name.

Gandmother expired in 2015/12. FD matured in 2017/07. Maturity amount is ~500000. My mother received all the money. Bank had deducted TDS.

Do my mother need to show this amount in her IT Returns? Can we get back the TDS amount?
