Refund of TDS can only be claimed after filing of Income Tax Return with the help of appropriate ITR form.

Even if you don't have taxable income but TDS have been deducted from you against your PAN, then you have to file Income Tax Return for claiming the refund of Tax deducted.

Shilpa you file the last two year return and also write a letter to I.T.O. and Commissioner U/s 119 for late filing of return.

Yah you have to first file return of that year showing TI below maximum amount exempted from tax . And thereby claim TDS and attach copy of Form 16A. If you have already filed return of that year within the due date then revise it.
