Taxation of Interest from Compensation received

Hello,


A client has come up with TDS certificates stating that he has got interest on the, compensation payable by the Government on Compulsory land acquisition. We know that we have to tax the interest on accrual basis. However the ROI has to be revised for the past 6 years. So, what practical steps to be adopted in order to revise the return and claim refund or pay taxes as the case my be.

regards,

treat this sum as additional cost of land received, 

Dear,

 

You have to tax the interest in the year of receipt, however you will get a deduction of 50% of interest u/s 57.

No question of revising old returns.
