A government employee is receiving arrears of salary for last 3 years starting from FY-2006-07.The entire arrears are getting deposited in his PF Account(as per govt policy).He can not take benefit of 80C beyond Rs.100,000/- but he can take benefit of relief under section 89. Can anyone tell me while calculating tax of last 3 years for relief u/s 89 can i revise deduction u/s80C? As entire arrears are getting deposited in PF.If anyother remedy please suggest.
