If you received the TDS Certificate before filing the return of income, in my opinion,you can claim the tds in the year in which the income is offered to tax. Otherwise you can claim the tds in the year of receipt and convince the assessing officer that the income is offered to tax in the preceeding Assessment year.

I think you can claim TDS in next year since the certificate is issued in the mext year. Also, since they have issued you certificate in next year, there will not be any credit for the same agaisnt your PAN in the previous year.
