My grandmother used to get Interest income on Fixed Deposit from bank and TDS was deducted on that. (Grandma's income was less than 1,00,000). She died in January 2011. My dad filed a manual ITR to claim the refund of TDS for that year. As she had already died the bank a/c no given for the refund belonged to my dad. When the Refund Cheque came the bank refused to credit it because the cheque was named after my grandma and not my father. So, the Income Tax Advocate who filed the return wrote a letter to the Refund Issue Authority and sent the original cheque along with the death certificate. There was no communication from there side and the refund is still pending. Please suggest how to claim that refund.
