That means you must have done the provision entry, otherwise TDS itself is not due for this expenses.
Also note TDS will have to be paid from the due date to till the date of payment as per chapter XVIIB & not from April to Sept or June to Sept.
For eg: TDS is due for the month of March 09 its due is 07-April (if the amount credited or paid is upto 30th March) then Interest needs to pay from 08-April to the date of payment. OR say TDS is due for the entry made on 31st March then its due date is 31st May then interest needs to pay from 01-June to the date of payment.
