Calculating Int U/s 234A is very simple.
It is calculated @ 1% p.m. for each month delayed in filling the return after the due date.(Even half a month is considered as full month.)
Due date
for all individuals - 31/07
Tax audit / partners of tax audit firms : 30/9
Hope the explanation is clear. . . !!

When an assessee fails to submit their return within due date i.e.31st July of 30th Sept.,then interest u/s 234A is calculated as 1% on NET TAX PAYABLE upto the date of filing for per month or part of month.
