    This  notification is  just an eyewash &  hardly a  handful of assesses may be benefited
    1.       Any salaried employee  bound to have   some  interest  income from  deposits &    a very marginal   interest  of Rs.10000/- is  fixed  to ensure  that    very few assesses are left out
    2.       For  assessee  with     housing loan &   loan  interest benefit ,  this  notification will  not apply.
    3.       If there is refund claim , again  this  notification will  not apply.  
    There  is a  popular  story where, in  clash  of egos, one  person  challenges, “can u  carry    this mountain?”    –  
    The  other person (instead  of replying in negative) says, “ Sure,  please lift it  and place  it on my back and I will   carry it.  That was  a smart answer knowing  fully  well that  it is impossible  to lift a mountain  & place  it on the back.  
    CBDT,   by this  notification  tries  to show as if  they  have  made a  remarkable relief   /  assessee friendly  exemption,  making sure  while drafting the circular that  no assessee will  benefit out of  it.

    Hi,

    For the rule “Can an individual who is getting income under the head “salaries” from more than one employer take benefit of the notification?”
    Lets say if the employee worked for an employer1 for 10 months and he changed to another employer2 for 2 months in that FY 2010-2011. Will he covered under this scheme.?
