not a legal query a query on the procedure.  You are not the first Govt servant receiving arears of DA. All know it is taxable and included in wages.

It is taxable. Calculation of tax to be deducted is not your problem, unless you happen to be ddo also, other wise your ddo should be wise enough to calculate and deduct tax according to law.

REPLY: Arrear DA received is part of salary and taxable.

In your case,  the arrears received entirely relate to the current Financial Year only (for the months from July2013 to October 2013).

Therefore you cannot claim any relief under Section 89(1)- spreading over to several years..

Agreed with R Rajagopalan who has beautifully explained it.
