Hiya,
If you apply now (say, in December 2007 or Jan 2008, before the new regulations come into force), it is fairly clear that your SARAL does not cover the 12 months of consideration. There you need to provide the following documents to claim points in the previous earnings section:
1. 12 months' salary slips from any consecutive 12 month period from October 2006 thru November 07, assuming you are applying in Dec 07 or Jan 08.
2. Your SARAL that you mentioned, though it does not cover the full 12 month period.
3. Your Bank Statements for the same period showing credits of the net salary and this amount should agree with whats on the respective payslips.
4. If the Bank statements cannot be provided, you need to provide a statement from your employer stating:
a. Either the full amount earned during the 12 month period, or,
b. The amount earned during the period that is not on your SARAL, i.e., April 2007 thru November 2007.
The statement from your employer should resemble or look like a Form 16, starting with the Gross Salary and showing the deductions down to the Taxable salary and finally the total net salary credited to your account. This amount should match that on your payslips for the same period.
Normally, you need to provide either of 3 and 4 above, but it is best if you can provide both.
When you make the application, you need to request for exceptional consideration because your SARAL does not cover the whole period of consideration.
Hope this helps. Post back if you need further clarifications.
Cheers.
