Form 16 figures in itr-1

Hello,

I have a query in filing ITR-1.

While filing ITR-1 for salary income, we had to take the figure of Point-6 of Form-16, i.e. “Income Chargeable under the head ‘salaries’”

Now, for the A.Y. 2018-19, can we take the figure of Point-3 of Form-16, i.e. “Balance (1-2)”?

If we write this, we can write the amount of Professional Tax in the column of “Deductions u/s 16” if ITR-1, and the balance figure will be Point-16 of Form-16.

Can we fill the details in above manner? Kindly advise.

Thanks.
