Tds refund of earlier years...

This query is : Resolved 

08 December 2011 I have TDS Certificates for Tax deduction of Rs.10,000/- and Rs.15,000/- (Apprx.) for the Financial Year 2006-07 and 2007-08 respectively. I have not filed any return for these years. Can I file now and get refund? Is there any time limit to claim the refund? My auditor says that I can e-file and get refund from the FY 2009-10 and not before that. Can anyone help me in this regard?

08 December 2011 I agree with your auditor, belated return can be filed with in 1 year from the end of assessment year so it possible only for F.Y 2009-10 and not before that.
