I am late approx 10 days now from the 15th dec deadline. I had paid advance tax on time in September.
Can I calculate 1% interest per month on pro-rata basis and pay the advance tax installment now?

Thanks Ankush.
I have one more related query. This is my first year as a freelancer and expected turnover is more than Rs25Lakh. I have hired other freelancers and paying them using bank transfer (NEFT). Does getting an invoice from the hired freelancers in the attached format allows me to the payments as deductable cost from my earnings.
P.S. I do have a TAN number but haven't paid any TDS for hired freelancers till now.

As per my knowledge You would have to deduct TDS on payments made to Freelancers since freelancers are just like professional help.So deduct TDS us/s 194J.It is to mentioned that tds u/s 192 applicable for salary would not be covered here since there is no employee-employer relationship.You can claim payments made to freelancers as deductible expense provided you are not covered under presumprive business.

But they haven't discolsed their income from other sources and I have paid them less than 2lakh this year. Still I need to deduct their TDS?
Mine is a android game development work. I earn from ads revenue on android. Earnings more than 25Lakh. Can I utilize section 44AD for presumptive business?

1) Mine is not brokerage or commission work
2) I am individual in computer software development

oh God! I didn't deduct TDS for so many freelancers and paid them in full.
I better see a CA in physical and get all this resolved. I have expenses from odesk.com, facebook ads, internet bills, fiverr.com, purchasing software, macbook, mobile phone.
If I contact a CA now, he will charge at least 15-20K from me now for resolving all the TDS and advance tax stuff right.
And then I need to pay 25-35K for account keeping and audit in April.
Could you pls advise if my estimates on the fees for CA are correct?

Section 44AD is for retail business,since you are android game developer you dont fall under this category.
You have to deduct TDS since limit under section 194J is Rs 30,000 per annum as quoted by Raj C Joshi.TDS rate 10%.
An individual is liable to deduct TDS if he isrequired to get his accounts audited.(LImit of tax audit for professionals like software developer is RS 25 Lacs)
Disclosure of income under other sources is not required since you are not deducting TDS under salary income
