If you received an ex gratia payment of £11 lakh upon retirement, it is generally not taxable under the Income Tax Act. However, if your employer has deducted TDS (Tax Deducted at Source) on this amount, you should check your Form 16. It's possible the payment wasn't classified as ex gratia, or you may need to claim an exemption on your Income Tax Return (ITR) to get a TDS refund.
