Quick Summary

A client, a school headmaster, did not receive salary between November 2020 and March 2021, with salary slips also not generated. He received his salary up to October 2020 and later received arrears in July 2021. The query concerns how to declare income for the financial year 2020-21, specifically whether to declare only the salary received or the entire period up to March 2021, and how to handle the arrears for tax purposes.

05 August 2021 DEAR SIR,

ONE OF MY CLIENT DID NOT NOT RECEIVE HIS SALARY FROM IN THE MONTH OF NOV 2020 TO 31ST MARCH 2021. AND EVEN HIS SALARY SLIPS WERE ALSO NOT GENERATED (SALARY BILL NOT SENT TO TREASURY OFFICE). SO HE RECEIVED SALARY UP TO OCT 2020. BUT HE RECEIVED HIS ARREARS SALARY IN THE MONTH OF JULY 2021.

MY QUERY IS FOR THE FINANCIAL YEAR 2020-21 HE HAS TO DECLARE ONLY UP TO THE MONTH OF HIS SALARY HE RECEIVED OR HAS TO DECLARE ENTIRE YEAR MEANS FROM OCT TO MARCH 2021.

PLEASE CLARIFY ME

05 August 2021 Check form 16 and file ITR based on it. In case arrear salary included in next year for TDS claim 89(1) relief in next year.

05 August 2021 DEAR SIR,

HE IS HEAD MASTER OF THE SCHOOL, SO MANUALLY PREPARE FORM 16, HE WANTS TO FILE INCOME TAX RETURNS BASED ON WHAT HE RECEIVED SALARY UP TO THE MONTH OF OCT 2020. AND HE DECIDED TO INCLUDE HIS ARREARS SALARY FOR THIS YEAR MEANS 2021-22.

IS POSSIBLE BECAUSE PREVIOUS YEAR HIS SALARY SLIPS NOT GENERATED DUE COVID AND OTHER REASONS. CAN WE FILE IT RETURNS INCLUDING ARREARS SALARY AND THIS YEAR SALARY.
