yes so that u can claim refund of the same

I understand I did not post the question clearly.

the question is Universities / Research organisations like CSIR etc do not want TDS to be deducted on their deposits.

so to approach bank and ask not to deduct TDS should these organisations necessarily approach Income Tax Dept. and obtain  the exemption certificates .(obtained in that year.)

OR use commonsense that the organisations who are not assessable under income tax act, can't lose TDS on their deposits. 

yes they should obtain the exemption certificate and submit the same to the bank so that no tds is deducted

for ready reference I am posting circular 4/2002. (as per that it is not required)  But...

Circular : No. 4/2002, dated 16-7-2002.surprise

 
". Whether prescribed self-declaration under section 197A can be submitted by entities whose income is
exempt under section 10
1. Subsequent to the amendment to section 197A made by the Finance Act, 2002 whereby a new sub-section
(1B) has been inserted with effect from 1st June, 2002, representations have been received seeking clarification
whether the prescribed self-declaration under the said section can be submitted by entities exempt from tax
under section 10 even if the payments referred to in sub-section (1A) to be made to them exceed the threshold
limit not subject to tax.
2. This matter has been examined by the Board. It has been decided that in case of those funds or authorities or
Boards or bodies, by whatever name called, whose income is unconditionally exempt under section 10 of the
Income-tax Act and who are statutorily not required to file return of income as per section 139 of the Incometax
Act, there would be no requirement for tax deduction at source since their income is anyway exempt under
the Income-tax Act. The institutions whose income is unconditionally exempt under section 10 and who are
statutorily not required to file return of income as per the provisions of section 139 are :
(i) “local authority”, as referred to in the Explanation to clause (20);
