it is to be calculated on total amount for the period from april to date of deposit in august, for balance perid it is to be calculated on balance amount
Like if total tax payable is 1,00,000/-
self ass tax paid in august 60,000/- plus interest
Now you have to calculate interest on 1,00,000 for april to date of deposit and on 40,000 for the rest period
