17 April 2020 Family pension is to be computed in accordance with the method of accounting regularly employed by you. Hence, if you followed mercantile system in earlier year's , then income will be computed on due basis in rest of the year's.. If you followed cash system in earlier year's, then family pension should be computed on receipt basis in the next following year's.
