The article addresses whether interest under section 244A of the Income-tax Act applies to tax refunds determined under the Direct Tax Vivad se Vishwas Act (DTVSV). Applying precedent that treats a DTVSV-determined amount as a tax refund, the analysis concludes that where the Revenue retained funds without right, statutory entitlement to interest follows; the DTVSV Explanation concerning pre-declaration payments does not negate post-Form No.5 interest. The conclusion directs revenue authorities to grant interest for delay beyond the statutory period on refunds determined under DTVSV for the specified assessment years.
