only 405692/- { (248000-17308) + 175000} is taxable.
Leave encashment is fully exempt.
Bonus and salary is already taxable in 2006-2008 on accural basis so not taxable in 15-16.
Court exp. are not part of salary it i just rembureshment of exp. so not taxable.
Only Interest of 175000/- and Gratuity of Rs. 230692/- ( 248000-17308) is taxable.
If any one have different view please update.

altough it is recived in current year. but as per income tax salary is taxable on accrual of receipt which ever is earlier.
so as per this rule salary should be taxable in 2006-2008

then you have to recalculate income of 2006-08 as per salary plus arrear of salary and in current year treat it as receipt. then differental should be taxable.

Exempted Gratuity is lower of following
1. Last Drawn salary X no. of years of emoloyement X 15/26
15000 X 2 X 15/26 = 17308
2. Rs 10,00,000
3. Gratuity actually received i.e 248000
Lower is 17308 so taxable gratuity is Rs. 248000-17308 = 230692
