The total income of FY 2007-08 should be Rs. 1,00,000.

Though Mr. X has claimed relief for arrears of salary received, since salary is taxed on due or receipt basis whichever is earlier, and thereby the arrear of Rs 15,000 is taxed in the year of receipt, it forms part of the income of FY 2008-09 itself. So the total income for FY 2007-08 is Rs. 1,00,000
