Please refer to the provisions of Sec.155(14) of the IT Act. As per the provisions, if credit for TDS has not been given on the pretext that such certificate was not furnished and if such certificate is furnished within two years from the end of the assessment year, in which such income was assessable, then AO will amend the order & provisions of Sec.154 will be applicable. Thus, if the TDS was for FY 2007-08, the income becomes assessable in AY 2008-09 & such claim can be made up to 31/03/2011.
