Hi, My dad is going to
Hi,
My dad is going to retire in June 2013 after 33years of service.He is 59 now and will complete 60years on Nov 9 2013.After retirement he is going to get a sum of 17lakhs.So,wanted to know how the income tax will be calculated for him and in which year the income tax deduction will happen for him?I believe it will happen in the next year and not this year.This year after his retirement i believe he will get the complete sum of money and deduction will happen only in the next year based on any investments he has made for this sum.Please correct me if I am wrong and please give some suggestions about the different ways,in which he can invest.
Thanks and Regards,
Sumaiya
