I have perused the order of the AO. I have also perused the order of the Hon'ble High Court at Bombay in writ petition No. 823 of 2000, in the case of the Stock Holding Corporation of India Ltd. Vs. the CIT-III, Mumbai, where in the order dated 17/11/2014 the Ld. High Court clearly stated that interest u/s. 244A(1)(b) is allowable on account of excess payment of tax on Self Assessment from the date of payment of such tax to the date of refund of such excess payment. Respectfully following the said decision along with the various other decisions submitted by the assessee where also the decision of the Bombay High Court stated supra were relied on, I hold that interest on excess amount of Self Assessment Tax should be refunded with interest as per provisions of Section 244A(1)(b) for AYs relating to period prior to the amendment inserted w.e.f 01/06/2016.
