Abstract This paper is committed to introducing some Bihari type inequalities for scalar functions of one independent variable under an initial condition associated with an arbitrary time scale T $\mathbb{T}$. The integrals involve the maximum of an unknown function over a past time interval. We not only solve some new estimated bounds of a specific class of retarded and nonlinear dynamic inequalities but also derive and unify continuous inequalities along with the corresponding discrete analogs of some known results with ‘maxima’ on time scales. We illustrate some applications of the considered inequalities to represent the advantages of our work. The main results will be proved by utilizing some examination procedures and the basic technique of Keller’s chain rule on time scales.
