I have a doubt regarding the meaning of "in arrears" as per section 89(1) of the Income Tax act 1961?

Any sum(s) received in arrear will be taxed in the year of receipt if the same has not taxed earlier. For claiming tax rebate u/s 89(1), tax is first computed on total income including such arrears and then tax is computed on total income excluding such arrears. The difference, if any in positive may be claimed u/s 89(1).

Pls read the section 89(1) throughly for this purpose.
