17 October 2014 I am working in a PSU owned by Govt.of India . I have received performance related pay for the year 2013-14 in subsequent year i.e in 14-15. I am claiming relief u/s 89( 1) as my contention is that it is nothing but profit in lieu of salary and it accrued to me in the year 2013-14 itself. In 2013-14 my tax rate is 20% whereas in 14-15 it is 30%.
The company contention is that Performance related pay is in the nature of Bonus and it is taxable in the year of receipt i.e 2014-15 even though relating to earlier year 13-14. Hence no relief will be available u/s 89(1).
Please give me any specific case law and relevant section which can be referred in this case .

17 October 2014 IT IS IN NATURE OF PROFITS IN LIEU OF SALARY U R ELIGIBLE FOR RELIEF
