If she asks you to consider her previous salary then you have to consider and deduct TDS accordingly. if she does not say it then employer has no responsbility to ask employee about salary of previous employer and calculate TDS, therefore if she does not instruct you to consider her previous employer salary then you dont have to consider and accordingly for 5 months there will not be any tax liability.

You need not to consider the previous employer's salary payment for deduction of TDS by you, If she at her option declared to you such previous employer's salary payment details and requested you consider this for deduction of TDS then only you shall consider that and deduct TDS from November'13 equally.
