If the tax was not paid on time and paid at a later date, it would be proper and legally correct for the department to collect interest over the delayed payment made. You may state that you have not utilised that amount whereas the department has not received the amount due to it hence it cannot be blamed for imposing interest over the delayed payment.

you have to agitate your grievances before the concerned tax department, showing the real cause of happening and as such you are not in liability of any delay occurrence, so far. certainly on consideration of the fact the concerned tax department will do the needful.
