yes.............
Dear Prakash,
Income Under Head Salary is taxable on "Receipt or Due - Whichever is earlier" basis...
Therefore if salary was due in 2006-07 but only payment was made in 2007-08, then salary of 2006-07 will be taxable in 06-07 itself..
Relief u/s 89(1) is available ONLY IN CASE OF ARREARS OR ADVANCE OF SALARY..
ARREARS :- It means that the salary though pertains to prior period BUT WAS NOT DUE IN THAT PERIOD AND HAS BECOME DUE AND PAYABLE IN THE CURRENT PERIOD...
Eg:- Increase in Salary with retrospective effect
