Assesment year is the year for which the TAX is to be
assed. Assesment year is always the current financial year.
Previous year could be well inferred which will be any year
previous to assesment year.
eg. 2009-2010 is assesment year.
Previous year may be any year prior to 2003-2010

Answer / vivek ramakrishnan
Well, let's say you've earned Rs. 5 lacs in FY 2010-11 (i.e
for the period 01 Apr 2010 to 31 Mar 2011).
When do you file your tax returns for this? ==> It's
usually in June or July 2011.
June 2011 is actually the next year (you earned Rs. 5 lacs
for the year ended 31 Mar 2011, remember?). June 2011 falls
under FY 2011-12 (since it falls under the period 01 Apr
2011 to 31 Mar 2012).
Since you file your returns in June 2011, and hence your
tax is assessed in June 2011, this year i.e. FY 2011-12 is
called the "Assessment year".
The previous year, i.e. FY 2010-11 is called...well,
the "Previous year"
