Itr1-tds tab

MEgha (AM) (29 Points)

Hello,

My name is Megha. I am a salaried person

My query is in regard to ITR1-'TDS"

I failed to submit my rent receipts to my employer thus TDS has been deducted

Although ,I filled my original return on 31/07/2014 but again fail to claim my HRA,

i know i can claim by showing the Salary chargeable to tax as after deducting HRA(Salary as shown in FORM 16 - HRA)=123456,as an eg

but my ques in such a case the salary income as per FORM 16 and actually computed(123456) will differ

So i want to know as which salary amount to be shown in "TDS' tab of ITR1

as per FORM 16 or actually calculated(123456)

because as per my understanding salary amount in "Income Details" tab in

"Income from Salary / Pension (Ensure to fill Sch TDS1)"

should be equal to salary amount in "TDS" Tab

Appreciate for your quick response

In "Income Details" tab in "Income from Salary / Pension (Ensure to fill Sch TDS1)" fill the taxable salary as per Form 16 (or as per ur computation, if any, after including any income(s) or / & claiming any further exemptions / deductions) while on TDS tab, u have to fill the salary amount as per ur Form No.16 issued by ur employer. Moreover, it is not necessary that they should be always be equal, provided u have the necessary proofs (i.e., in ur case, rent receipts on revenue stamps if > Rs.5000/-, rent agreement & payments by cheque or net banking which will substantiate the genuiness of rent payment) in case of any notice issued by A.O., the chances of which are almost less than 1%. As u filed ur ITR by due date, u can revise ur return by claiming the HRA exemption u/s-10(13A), to minimise ur tax liability.
