TDS is a rate based deduction whereas you Tax Liability is slab based. . It's a co-incidence that your tax slab and TDS are under the same range. . You may not require to pay tax, but you may get refund on filing your ITR as you may be having credit of tax after adjusting your tax liability against the TDS. .

TDS doesn't realte with your personal income tax entirely it is part of it if you don't have any other income then it is possible that you will get it refund. if you have other income also then calculate your income tax and deduct TDS from it. then if payable then pay. if not then get refund.
