Quick Summary
If you've claimed an incorrect TDS in your Income Tax Return (ITR) that appeared on your Form 26AS and subsequently received a refund, but the credit is now showing as nil after five years, don't panic. While it's advisable to address the issue promptly, especially if you've already paid the amount back through a regular assessment challan, prosecution for simply claiming wrong TDS is unlikely. Seek advice on the next steps and potential interest implications.

Better pay back the amount, before CPC may take any action.

Dear sir i have already paid through challan 400 regular assessment.. and filed rectification request to cpc

It may passes through in your favor.           

You have to pay interest also from the date of release of payment to the date of payment of regular assessment tax
If you have already paid challan then you are completely out of worries. There is no prosecution just for sake of claiming wrong TDS
When did you receive the tax refund and when was the tax paid under regular assessment tax?
