06 August 2014 Hi Sir, Need your advise on how to reflect(in IT Return for tax exemption) joining bonus of Rs:75,000 which is recovered from me for leaving the organization within one year. Same has been reimbursed from my new Employeer. I have been taxed on both the instance. While checking with my previous employer they said the joining bonus was given in FY 2012-2013 and recovery was done in FY 2013-2014 it will not reflect in Form 16 which is issues for FY-2013-2014 by previous employer. Is there any way that this can be accommodated to avoid paying excess tax for the same amount ?
