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 for 5 months (Mar - July) including the month of March (month of deduction).
Please correct me if the above interpretation has an alternative view.
