# Query : Need urgent help :

If an employee working in private co. & receives Gratuity of Rs. 12 lac., & suppose Rs. 10 lac. is exempt U/s 10 (10). Balance Taxable Gratuity is Rs. 2 lac.

Now my Question is, whether an employee can claim Relief U/s 89 (1) for this taxable portion of Gratuity.

Thanks in Advance
