Ours is a Partnership firm. We have taken vehicle Loan/Finance from Sundaram Finance Ltd. We have already paid the whole amount of insalment. Is is Liable for TDS ? If Yes Then what is the procedure to get refund of already paid whole interest ?

It is not liable for TDS if the aggregate amount of interest credited or paid (or likely to be credited or paid) during the financial year does not exceed Rs. 5,000
Otherwise U have the following options 1. Ask for refund of interest already paid and deposit TDS- might not be possible 2. Deposit TDS from your own fund- extra expense amounting to TDS 3. Face disallownace of the whole interest paid under income tax act- pay extra tax 4. Compare 2 and 3 and select the best option

usualy these people have TDS exemption certificate U/S. 197. Discuss with the concerned prerson and get the same for your records and close the issue.
