subject has done job in a ltd from apr 08 to mid jul 09.but not got the clearance from employer
Again joined another company in sep 08 worked for 25 days & left without taking salary
now in mar 08 joined another company & told them that he was working from sept onwards in previous company.
now he has to give his previous salary details to preseny employer for tax calculation & return filing.
I want to ask that
1. It will be legal that he will give tax without earnings.
2. If he will need any document from both previous employers or simply tax will be calculated on the basis of what he will ask them that he has taken so much salary.
3. He had not provided rent slips to previous employers, will he get HRA assumption.
4. PF no. of previous employers will be required or not?

See in today's time, returns are filed in good faith and no supporting document is required to be attached alongwith return.
The basic fact which needs to be understood is that, Income Tax Act provides levy on income and if there is no income then there won't be any levy.
If a person remained unemployed for a certain period during any previous year, he is not required to provide any detail regarding that.
But in your case, since he lied to his employer that he was employed somewhere else, when infact he was unemployed... Even in that case he can make any excuse that he lost his salary slips or bla bla bla.... to avoid unnecessary addition in his TDS certificate..
Regarding HRA, if you have really paid rent then you can claim its deduction while filing your return even if the same is not furnished to the employer.
Regarding PF, if you want to continue with your same PF account, then you will have to get a certificate from your previous employer allowing you to transfer that account to the new employer.
