Confusion of salary details in ITR

While submitting ITR online, we have income shown under tax details (auto populated as per Form 16) and 'Income Details'. Tax Details shows total income received from employer. E.g. 10 lac. But on form 16, under Head Salaries it shows total income - deductions(e.g. 1 lac HRA). I have following options now.
1. Under 'Income Details' put 9 lac as income, keep tax details income as '10 lac. But this will be mismatch of incomes.
2. Put '9 lac' as income under 'Income Details'. Change 'Tax Details' income to '9 lac. But this will change auto populated income, also traces shows income as 10 lac.

Please suggest which one is right option to choose.

You income from salary is 9 Lakh (after deducting HRA under Sec 10, if you eligible for such deduction)

 

To match your figures of 26 AS with form 16
contact your employer to revise the TDS return or
you may claim HRA as exemption under sec 10 (if applicable) in your income tax return.

Thanks for your replies.
