25 January 2017 Tax is to be deducted at the time of payment to the vendor or credit to his account whichever is earlier.
if the amount was underinvoiced, and invoice is raised in subsequent year it would be mean the amount was not paid or credited in the FY 15-16. Hence the rate of tax applicable in the year of payment or credit is to be applied.
If it was under-paid, please ascertain if the amount was paid or credited to the vendor.
Ultimately you must consider the rate of tax applicable as per LDC at the time of payment or credit. Accordingly the interest may be applied.
