TDS on Fixed Deposit Interest not claimed for Refund

This query is : Resolved 

14 March 2025 One of my friends, who is an NRI ( due to employment in Oman), deposited Rs. 3 Lakhs in the federal bank for 10 years on 11/03/2015. She became NRI from 2017 onwards. Bank started deduct TDS from accrued interest but didn't inform her. Now when FD matured, the bank paid her after deducting the entire TDS (Approx Rs. 1 Lakh) from the 2017-18 Assessment Year till 10/03/2025. Now they mailed her all ( 29 Nos.) Form 16A certificates, from Asst Year 2017-18 to Asst Year 2025-26. 29 forms together.

Kindly advise whether she can claim the entire TDS refund now.

14 March 2025 Yes the same can be claimed after getting a grant of delay of condonation from Commissioner of Income Tax. Then Income Tax return can be filed with claiming all the TDS amount.
Going forward, She can submit Form 15G, which states that income generated is below taxable level and bank will not deduct TDS in future.

14 March 2025 Thanks for the advise. Is there any time-limit for claiming TDS refund
