Quick Summary
This discussion clarifies whether TDS credit can be claimed for a previous financial year (A.Y. 2019-20) even if the TDS was deposited late in August 2020. The key is to check if the TDS is reflected in the seller's Form 26AS for A.Y. 2019-20. If it is, the seller can claim the TDS credit for that year. Furthermore, sellers can revise their return up to 30th September 2020 to claim this credit, provided it appears correctly in their 26AS.

If TDS is deposited on August, 2020 with interest for A.Y 2019-20,(i.e Deposited late by purchaser, but Filed / reflected in A.Y 2019-20) than seller can claim TDS in A.Y 19-20.

Check 26AS of seller,in which year it's reflecting ?

if the seller has not claimed TDS is it possible to revise the return to claim the credit?

Yes, For A.Y 2019-20 seller can revise his/her return up to 30th September, 2020.

Note: Before filiing revised return check that TDS Credit is duly reflecting in 26AS of seller in A.Y 2019-20.
