only interest part is taxable. because we never claim Income tax paid as a expense so refund is also not treated as income and hence exempt.

it refund is a part of your income every time, e.g. when you are in employement income tax is deducted from your salary and you already add this part in your gross total income , other example in contractorship tds deducted in that case also total income includes tds paid hence it already taken as income and if tax was not applicable in your income then you can took this tds in your b/s as current assets

he amount of refund is not taxable.
However, interest received on tax refund is taxable. In the above instance interest received is Rs 550 and hence only this amount will be taxable.
The rate of tax would be as per your applicable slab rate. You may include it in the taxable income of the year in which such refund is received.
