Yes, in case of Arrears of Salary relief is available u/s 89.

Since salary is taxable on due or recieved (whichever is earlier basis), the salary recieved as arrears are in respect of the previous A. Y. ( 06-07 to 11-12) as provided by you .

The relief u/s 89 shall be claimed as the difference between the tax calculated taking whole arrears as salary for current A. Y. ( in which the arrears are recieved) and the tax calculated on arrears for different A. Y. 's
