adjudged, over the amount preliminarily found by the court to be just compensation in accordance with Section 20-5-10 of this Act, from the date on which the parties interested in the property surrendered possession of the property in accordance with the order of taking, to the date of payment of the excess by the plaintiff.

the court to be just compensation and deposited by the plaintiff, to which any interested party is entitled, if the interested party applied for authority to withdraw that portion in accordance with Section 20-5-20 of this Act, and upon objection by the plaintiff (other than on grounds that an appeal under subsection (b) of Section 20-5-10 of this Act is pending or contemplated), authority to withdraw was denied; interest shall be paid to that party from the date of the plaintiff’s deposit to the date of payment to that party.
