If you provide investment evidence to your company and your gross taxable benefit is under the taxable cap, you will not have to pay any tax. Thus no TDS can be excluded from your taxes. In the same way, you should apply Form 15G and Form 15H to the bank if your gross income is well below the taxable cap so that you really do not subtract TDS on your interest income.
In the event that you have not been able to provide evidence to the employer or that your employer or bank has indeed subtracted TDS and that your overall revenue is well below the taxable limit – you can file a return and receive a refund of such a TDS.
