LTA claim while filling ITR

I am a salaried individual, and I took a family trip in the last week of March. As a result, I was unable to apply for LTA (Leave Travel Allowance) through my employer(LTA component is present in my salary structure ), as the declaration deadline is in the first week of March. How can I claim this LTA when filing my income tax return online? Do I simply enter the amount under LTA in the ITR without submitting any proof(or where to submit ?) Please let me know.

Quick Summary
This discussion addresses how a salaried individual can claim Leave Travel Allowance (LTA) when filing their Income Tax Return (ITR) online, even if they missed their employer's declaration deadline. While LTA is typically processed through employers, it's confirmed that you can still claim it by reporting the relevant amount directly within your ITR. The exact procedure for submitting proof or where to declare it is also clarified.

While filing itr we do not claim lta

Do you mean , I can NOT put the LTA amount in ITR if it is not done via Employer ?

You can claim sir by reporting in ITR.
