22 June 2013 1)Is there any necessity to give any application to Assessing officer for claiming releif under section 89.

2) Also, if the assessee had not been filing the Income Tax return for the past 5 assessment years .i.e. for the years for which the arrears were received, since the tax liablity was NIL, can there be any deniability of releif under section 89?

Please reply.
