SIR, PL HELP WHETHER MY CALCULATION IS CORRECT WITH REGARD TO LEAVE ENCASHMENT DEDUCTION UNDER SEC89 of income tax act SALARY RECD AY 2024-25 Rs.18,54,432 LEAVE SALARY RECD Rs. 40,281 TOTAL SALARY Rs.18,94,713 TAX PAID Rs.2,79,150 (INCLUDING Rs..12,567 as tax on leave encashment)
salary recd previous year (ay 2022-23) Rs.17,39,478
As per 10E calculation in income tax website, it shows no relief under Sec. 89.

Yes, the tax rate (Slab) being same in both the years, there won't be any change in tax over leave encashment amount, so better pay it in current year itself. No need to file Form 10E

No. LTCG can only be adjusted against LTCG. So, if there is any LTCG in this year, it will get adjusted, otherwise it will be carried forward.
