Dear Mr.Amir
The link which is talking about 89(1) relief on Leave Salary and not how to compute the 89(1 )relief. Could u share the information with dummy datas, it will be useful to me. Further, In the Leave Salary on retirement or otherwise, I didn't understand is how the leave salary earned can be bifuricated to the various years and how is it possible to match the present salary by which arrears got can be subsituted with the present salary for the previous years in which his salary would have been less.

Computation of relief in case of relief when salary has been received in arrears or in advance under section 89(1) (in terms of section 89 read with rule 21A):
1. Calculate the tax payable on the total income, including the additional salary of the relevant previous year in which the same is received.
2. Calculate the tax payable on the total income, excluding the additional salary of the relevant previous year in which the same is received.
3. Find out the difference in tax at (1) and (2) above.
4. Compute the tax on the total income after excluding the additional salary in the previous year to which such salary relates.
5. Compute the tax on the total income after including the additional salary in the previous year to which such salary relates.
6. Find out the difference in tax at (4) and (5) above.
7. The excess of tax computed at (3) over the tax computed at (6) is the amount of relief admissible u/s 89(1). No relief is however admissible if the tax computed at (3) is less than the tax computed at (6). In such a case the assessee–employee need not apply for relief.

Dear Sir,
Could not get ur question....
Employers share in PF contribution is not taxable if it is upto 12%........Employee's share is taxable (Deduction u/s 80C is available)
An assesee has received arrears of Salary (say Basic), Now Employer will contribute 12% as his contribution & from those arrears 12% Employees contribution will be deducted........Ok
So, Relief can be claimed in respect of entire arrears(basic including employee contribution to PF)...The same will be eligible u/s 80C........
Now if u have something else, then plz ask....

We are going to disburse arrear salary for financial year 2009-10 on april 2010 on settlement with the union. Arrear PF will be deducted from the arrear part now to compute the benefit of section 89(1) whether it can be spread in previous year or it will be considered in the year of receipt only like arrear ptax? Will the treatment be same like arrear Ptax?

Basically, Section 89(1) relief is nothing but the difference in the tax rates applicable on the arrears of salary received in any previous year.....
Basic computation will be as follows:-
For eg:- A person receives Rs. 100000 in F.y. 09-10 as arrears for f.y 07-08 and 08-09 amounting to Rs. 40000 & 60000 respectively.
Now assume that income taxed in F.Y. 07-08 and 08-09 was Rs. 210000 and 260000.
Income for F.y. 09-10 excluding arrears received is Rs. 300000.
For F.Y. 07-08
(1) calculate tax on Rs. (210000 + 40000) at the tax rates of f.y 07-08 minus tax on Rs. 210000 at tax rates of 07-08
(2) calculate tax on Rs. (300000 + 40000) at the tax rates of f.y 09-10 minus tax on Rs.300000 at tax rates of 09-10
(2) minus (1) will be the tax relief allowable u/s 89(1). If it comes out to be negative then don't exercise the option as this section is optional.
This will give you the difference between the tax rates on arrears.
Apply same method for F.y. 08-09 also.
