A retired private employee received gratuity and leave encashment, which were shown under the 'less deduction' section of their Form 16. They are inquiring whether they still need to submit Form 10E to claim tax exemption on these amounts. The advice given is that Form 10E is not required in this situation.

I was working as private employee and retired after completing 60 years. I received gratuity income and leave encashment after retirement. In form 16, these two part are showing under less deduction section Gratuity section 10(10) and leave encashment 10AA. Do i still need to submit form 10E to claim tax exemption on these two part.
