If TDS is Deducted and not Paid within due date then interest shall be 1.5% on TDS amount.
Months shall be considered from the date of Deduction to date on which TDS is Deposited to govt.
in this case, due date is 07/05 but he deposited the same on 08/05 .
interest will be charged for one month

Yes, if we are depositing 1 month interest means, we can get the default notice. If we are making 2 months interest means, the quarterly return get cleared. It's my personal experience.

1. Sec 201 deals with the consequence of failure to deduct or pay TDS. According to sec 201(1A)(ii), any person who deducted TDS but fail to remit the same then Simple Interest @ the rate of 1.5% p.m or part of a month shall be payable from the date of deduction to the date on which such amount is actually paid.
2. From the above reading it very clear that interest @ 1.5% p.m shall be charged from the date of deduction to the date when such amount of actually paid.
3. In your case interest, @ 1.5% pm will be charged from April (30.04.2019) and resultantly it becomes 2 months. It makes no difference even if it is paid in the same month on which it should have originally been remitted.
Please correct me if the above interpretation has an alternative view.
