I reproduce my request to LIC and its response.
I learn that this haphazard payment of 20% (of what?) interim relief has been made only to members of the Federation of LIC Class I Officers' Associations and so request your invaluable help in getting LIC furnish me with detailed calculations, apportioning the amount of Rs.29638/= to the respective financial years to enable me to satisfy myself that I have, indeed, received what I shpuld have received and to get appropriate relief under Section 89 of the Income Tax Act, 1961.
Thanks and regards.
Keep well.
