Dear S. Anand,

LTA Exemption is available for 2 journies in a Block of 4 years, It has nothing to do with the year to which it pertains..

However if u have not claimed any LTA exemption for a Block then u can carry forward 1 journey to be claimed in the first year of the next Block.

As far as LTA for past years is concerned u can claim Relief u/s 89(1) on account of arrears of salary.......
