12 June 2011 The condition of HRA and Transport allowance are not required to be correlated specifically when one is desirous of taking
benefit of both, as in the act no where such conflicting situation has been narrated.

For availing T A the prescribed restriction is " the employee should not be in the receipt of daily allowance."
So in my view, 70% of such allowance or Rs 6000/ per month which ever is less. is exempt as per Rule 2BB.
