hi future ca and wadhera,

thanks for your reply, as you said, the tds recoverable was clubbed in tally for the whole year.  It was not splitted off.  and also how to find out interest and percentage being calculated. kindly explain.

The excess amount received from IT dept is a liability, should be repay to the dept, whenever it asked. so the excess received shoud be shown as a item undre the head of current liabilities.

if  the excess is not refundable, the same should be treat as income and should be disclosed as a extrodinery item as per AS-5

amt. in excess of your claim could be treated as interest

In Tally under which group IT refund shall be taken?....
1) In case of individual

2) In Case of Company..
