22 July 2016 you mean to say...you are not claiming it as EXPENSES towards SALARY?
How will you transfer the said amount to SALARY? Can you please explain?

22 July 2016 sir,
neither rule 6DD(H) nor 6DD(I) will be applicable to that said employee because he is not being terminate/retire or shifted to any other place,

22 July 2016 yes. So section 40A(3) is applicable in your case, no matter whether you route the entry through current asset or otherwise.
