The refund on TDS I receive from Income Tax department by filling ITR is counted as Income in the fiscal year the refund is credited to my account by Income Tax department? If yes then I have never included this as income in my ITR, what should I do?

I think you are wrong, I just read a article in EconomicTimes yesterday and it explained that TDS refund is a Income and it was published becuase lots of ITR processing is getting delayed this year.
TDS credited to ur account is the income of last year, therefore it is not taxable, but if u hv received any interest by income tax department on such refund amount then it is treated as current year income and is taxable as income from other sources.
Income tax is not a business expense for the purpose of tax caculation. Therefore, refund of tds is just a return of excess tax paid by you and hence, shouldn't be classified as income.
Just like Self Asst Tax, TDS is also a form of Tax.
Since we do not claim TAx as an expenses, the same way refund of Tax cannot be treated as Income.
Any amount of Refund in excess of the Filed return to be treated as income.
This is the basic ruling

When I filed ITR, the Interest received on FD was calculated after reducing the TDS from it. Hence in my case TDS refund should be shown as income in next fiscal year since last year I reduced it when entering in "Income from Other Sources" section....
you should show interest income as per form 16A received from bank.
As per my knowledge Refund come after calculating tax and you have all ready paid tax on last year income.. Hence refund income is not taxble
Refund can not be taxed as income, Interest will be taxed as the the income on which tds was deducted was taken in consideration during the previous tear.
Gross income(which includes TDS) goes to P&L account . If we Tax TDS again it results in cascading .
TDS is nothing but income tax .Income Tax can not be allowed as a bizz expense as per IT Act and neither under MAT or AMT.
Usually Income tax provision is created at the end of the year (Ascertained Liability) and any TDS / Advance Tax is adjusted against tax amount while paying..
TDS receivable is an asset and any amount received as interest on refund is INCOME..
Hope this may help u.
Only Interest on Income Tax Refund to be treated as Taxable Income.
Income Tax paid / TDS is not allowed as Exps. and refund is not taxable.
