Works Contract-TDS

Dear group members, a meaningful discussion required. M/s AAA and M/s BBB engaged with joint venture agreement. M/s AAA obtained a construction contract from the Govt. As per the ir JV agreement, M/s BBB executed the work and claimed ITC and paid the output tax accordingly by utilising their ITC. Subsequently, govt. authorised bills to M/s AAA and deducted TDS. Now my question is, does M/s AAA is excisable to claim refund of TDS amounts from the Govt.???
