Relief u/s 89 For FY 2020-21

Can we claim releif u/s 89 if we file ITR-1 first time since arrears received in F.Y. 2020-21 of Last two P.Y. 2018-19 and 2019-20

However Total Income is less 5 lakh Rs. every year but due to arrears received TI is higher than Limit Amount and also TDS dedudted by Government employer.
Is it valid for file Form 10E to claim relief ?

Quick Summary
This discussion clarifies the eligibility for claiming relief under Section 89 for the Financial Year 2020-21, specifically when arrears from previous years (2018-19 and 2019-20) are received. It addresses whether relief can be claimed even if filing ITR-1 for the first time and if total income exceeds the limit due to these arrears. The advice suggests comparing tax liabilities with and without including arrears to determine the benefit and recommends checking employer computations before filing Form 10E.

Yes releif u/s 89 can be claimed
Compare the tax amounts,

if u add arrears to previous years, how much tax will arise?
and
if not add how much tax will arise to previous year

Firstly prepare calculations and then only claim relief..
Generally. computation, of tax. is done by employers while giving arrears .....so check accordingly & then claim
