Quick Summary

If you received Leave Travel Allowance (LTA) from your employer and TDS was deducted, but you didn't submit your travel bills to them, you can still claim the tax benefit. You can claim this deduction when filing your Income Tax Return (ITR) for FY 2021-22. The ITR allows you to make adjustments for expenses or benefits that were not accounted for during the financial year.

What he said.

Since you haven't claimed the LTA from your employer, you can claim it in your return. That's what the return is, essentially : a summary of everything from all sources and a means to make adjustments that might have been left out during the course of the year.
