Interest will be calculated from date of deduction to the date of payment on monthly basis @ 1.5%. (1.5% X No.of months X TDS amount).
In other words :
When TDS is not paid by its due date, then interest should be charged from the date of "PAYMENT" and not from the date of "DUE DATE"
Also.. Even a part of month is taken as a FULL month.
To know in details about how to calculate period of default and interest, see below link. The same is discussed at length.

I have recd a notice from department and according to their calculation :
Date of deduction 30/03/13
Date of deposit of challan 06/06/13
They calculated the months as 4 months and we talked to traces helpcentre they said march month will be taken full and also the june month , and the same calculation is in justification report.
Thats correct, cause as per the act even the part of the month (which can be interpreted a day also) will be taken as a full month.
and Hence March, April May & June = 4 months are taken
