(a)  Generally the person making such excess payment is entitled to claim refund;

(b)  Where the income of one person is included under sections 60 to 64, the latter person is entitled to claim refund;

(c)   Where through death, incapacity, insolvency, liquidation or other cause, a person is unable to claim or receive any refund due to him, his legal representative or the trustee or guardian or receiver, as the case may be, is entitled to claim or receive such refund for the benefit of such person or his estate.

(d)  Where the value of fringe benefits provided or deemed to be provided by one employer is included under sections 115w to 115wl in the value of fringe benefits provided or deemed to be provided by any other employer, the latter shall be entitled to refund.

Claim for refund- how and when [Sec 239 and Rule 41]:

(a)  Claim for refund of tax shall be made in Form No. 30 and verified in the prescribed manner.

(b)  Such claim shall be made within one year from the last day of the assessment year for which such refund is due to the assessee.

(b) The income of the assessee is not assessable in the hands of any other person under any of the provisions of the Act;

(c)   No interest will be admissible on the belated refund claims;
