Dear Sir, Certain steps have to be followed to calculate relief under section 89 (1). These steps are as follows:
  • Step 1: The taxpayer should find out the tax payable on his total income including arrears of the relevant previous year in which the same is received. (Ex: X)
  • Step 2: The taxpayer should then find out the tax payable on his total income excluding arrears. (Ex: Y)
  • Step 3: Subtract the value obtained in step 1 from the value obtained in step 2. (e., A-B) and keep the result value as Z.
  • Step 4: Find out the tax payable on the total income (including arrears) of the year to which the arrears are related. (Ex: “A”)
  • Step 5: Find out the tax payable on the total income (excluding arrears) of the year to which the arrears are related. (Ex: “B”)
  • Step 6: Subtract the value obtained in step 5 from the value obtained in step 4 (i.e., A – B). (Ex: “C”).
  • Excess of tax computed at step 3 over tax computed at step 7 is the amount of relief allowable under section 89. If tax computed at step 3 is less than tax computed at step 7 the taxpayer will not be eligible for any relief.
