17 February 2010 Suppose an employee has not submitted any medical bills or other documents for medical reimbursement then it becomes taxable, but my question is that Rs 15000/-is taxable at what rate?.
And secondly Rs 15000/- can be adjusted with Chapter VI deductions?.

17 February 2010 The company is not required to collect your medical bills. It is the obligation of the employee to have such bills with him.

The amount if considered as taxable would be charged to tax at the normal rate applicable to the individual. (depending on his taxable income).

17 February 2010 The Taxable Medical reimbursement can be adjusted with Chapter VI deductions.
If suppose deductions u/s 80C is 30000/-
then there will be no tax liability.
