you need to compute tax on total income as per the rates applicable for current A.Y. by including the arrears and without including the arrears and then find the difference.
afterwards you need to compute tax as per the rates applicable for the F Y. to which the arrears relate by including the arrears and also by excluding the arrears and find the difference.
if the amount of difference calculated for the current A.Y. is more than the one calculated afterwards then relief is admissible for the difference between the current A.Y. and previous years F.Y. else no relief can be availed

Hi Sir,

My father is a senior citizen & getting the pension arrears after 9 yrs , its monthly pension & all amount coming as arrears of around 9 yrs which comes to a big amount and the employer is not accepting the relief under section 89(1) and asking us to file return and get the refund from IT department.The total tax which comes as per 30% tax deduction is around eg 6 lakhs aprx but actual tax as per arrear yrs ( 2010-2018) should be around eg 1.2 aprx which is as per calculation of Form 10E ( calculated for tax pertaining to arrear yrs ). Our CA also suggest we can file Form10E as per section 89(1) and can get all the refund for the extra tax deducted for arrears by employer.

My question is if we upload form 10E while filing IT and ask for refund, will we get the refund of around eg 3.8 lakhs which is extra tax and my father is not liable for that extra tax as per his pension arrears.

Will there be any issues in getting the refund for the extra tax deducted by employer for pension arrears.

Thanks
