Interest is chargeable @ 1.50 per cent for every month or part of the month ,means full month interest will be charged for fraction period of month (With effect from 01/07/2010)

first i would like to clearly that tds rate on interest is @ 10%, and due date is 30 April if tds has deducted during the month of march.
Interest on tds is calculated 1.5% per month or part of the month, hence in your case interest will be calculated for 7 months.

1.All the TDS deductions made during a month are to be paid on or before7th of the next month. 2.As per your query due date is 7th April. 3.Interest is to be paid on 6 months (April to September- both months are inclusive) 4.Interest on late payment of TDS is not allowable as it is not business expenses.

I have a different observation on the rate of interest to be charged u/s 201(1A) of the IT Act,1961. In the cited situation, interest is to be charged @ 1% from 31st March to 30 th June (period of levy 4 months) and @1.5% from 1st July to 19th September(period of levy 3 months). Thus total period of levy is 7 months.
