One of our client has neither deducted nor paid the TDS from past 1 year and now they want to pay the TDS. Kindly let me know what are the consequences for the same and whether we have to charge interest at the rate of 12% or 18%.

They can pay TDS now, there is no problem and interest for late payment is to be charged in following manner and note that interest under income tax is charged on monthly basis and not on annual basis :-
- From date it is liable for deduction till it is actually deducted - 1% per month or part of the month (i.e part of the month is also considered as full month) - From date of deduction till date of payment - 1.5% per month or part of the month.
I hope this will resolve your query.

but usually TDS return has to be filed quarterly right? Then how to show this challan as this challan belongs to not ony Q4 but also for all the remaining quarters also

TDS return is different thing you can deposit whole amount while depositing TDS but if nature is different, then you have to deposit multiple challans. Challan for TDS is ITNS/281 there you have to mention for which assessment year you are paying TDS
