23 January 2010 Yes, he will be liable for TDS in current year. As one to be taxed under salary on receipt basis only.

23 January 2010 on first I didn't understand the question he is getting salary. Now what do you want to ask whether his deptt will deduct TDS on it or you are asking about income tax on it.
in first case Govt deptt will deduct TDS on it on receipt basis.
but if you are asking about income tax then he will pay tax on it. But he can claim 89(1).
