Please let me know the grounds of appeal in case of levy of interest u/s 234A,234B and 234C on company in liquidation when return is filed for A.Y 07-08 on 23-8-11, and income was 84000/-.

Reason was that the dues were to be determined at that time but the tax was payable on 17-08-2011 of Rs 28567/-.
