Thanks for the query Piyush,
The above deduction is from pension received in whole of the financial year and not per month.
If there is no statement otherwise assume always that act is saying provisions for whole of the financial year and not a month.
Arvind I am not in favour of your view, please refer to any commendable data to reinforce your view as it is wrong. Please revert with your detailed view and references in my msg box.
Piyush the deduction is for the year as a whole.

Hope this answers your query,
In case of any further query please revert.

Regards,
Abhimanyu
