13 May 2010 An officer reitired on 31st December 2009. His gratuity was not released because he did not vacate the Bank's quarters as per the rules of the organisation. He vacated the same in April 2010. We would like to know whether the tax on gratuity will be calculated as per F.Y. 2009-2010 or 2010-11. We may also like to know if any income is due in a particular year (not arrears) but released in another financial year, tax is to be deducted as per the rules applicable in F.Y. when it was due or the current year when it is paid actually.
