I have a question on how to a legal heir can claim the TDS deducted from a deceased parent in the legal heir's tax return if the latter is paying taxes on the deceased's income.
For example, let's say the decreased father had Rs. 100 income listed in form 26AS in the last financial year but died in end June. Let us assume that Rs. 25 of this income is to be taxed in the father's hands and Rs. 75 in the legal heir's hands.
In the TDS section of ITR 2:
Column 10 under Income (Claimed in spouse's hands) will be Rs. 75.
What will be the value under column 11 (Corresponding Receipts Offered, Gross Receipts)? Will it be the deceased's share of the income (Rs. 25) or the total income of Rs. 100 (Rs. 25 income of the deceased plus Rs.75 income of the legal heir)?
EDIT: My question is primarily about what the column above correspondings to? Is it the deceased's share of the income (Rs. 25) or the total income received by the deceased including the legal heir's share (Rs. 100)?

Yes thank you, but what is the value under column 11 (Corresponding Receipts Offered, Gross Receipts)? Is it 25 or 100? Two different CAs have told me two different things, so I wanted to be certainly before filing.
