NO, its not, bcoz it was already part of our income in an earlier year. Bcoz it was part of our income, it was taxed in that year, so it can't be taxed again.
Intt. however is taxable.

Income Tax Refund is not taxable in the hand of the an assessee because it's the previous year's income which has been assessed to tax. But interest on the same is liable to tax in the current assessment year as it has not been assessed earlier.

We have taken TDS (or Refund) as income of the pertaining year and paid the tax at the time of computing of tax liability, so no need to pay Income tax on reund of TDS again, but if this refund includs any part of interest on it then only interest part is libile ot pay IT on it and we show it as infcome of the preseeding year.
