Hi @Amit_Patnaik,
You can claim a refund of the taxes paid on salary paid back to the employer while filing ITR. You have to reduce income by the amount you paid back. You should report only the net salary income while filing ITR for AY 2021-22.

Thanks Divya, for your response!
Hi @abdabhi12
As per the income tax act, you are required to estimate the total income along with the variable component and pay advance tax accordingly every quarter.
If you miss out on estimating and paying the advance tax, then interest u/s. 234C shall be levied.
However, if you pay more tax then actual liability then you can claim refund for the same at the time of filing of your ITR.
