Past Tense using Time expression with Have and Had

Which one is correct statement?

a) Last year also I have not received any Increment. or b) Last year also I had not received any increment.

Both statements are suggesting that one has not received increment last year. Correct me if I am wrong.

My questions are:

  1. Which sentence is correct?
  2. Time expression "Last Year" is correct to use in the sentences or not?
  3. "Had" is use to suggest past of Past. But sentence #b does not suggest that what has happen after he had not received increment? E.g. 2013__I Have Not received Increment___2014 (Till the time)______________ 2013__I Had Not received Increment___(Second Past?)2014 (Till the time)_______
