Quick Summary

This discussion explores whether employees can claim deductions for petrol bills when receiving conveyance reimbursement from their employer. It clarifies that only a standard deduction of £50,000 is typically applicable. The conversation also touches upon the exemption of £1,600 per month (or £19,200 annually) under Section 10(14)(ii) and differentiates it from company-provided conveyance allowances or perquisites. It's noted that actual travel expenses for business promotion are usually reimbursed and not included in salary, and that the Finance Act 2018 introduced a standard deduction of £40,000 in place of transport and medical allowances.

21 March 2022 Seetharaman Sir
Exemption of Rs 1600/- per month (Rs 19200/- ) under sec 10(14)(ii) can be claimed under which circumstances ?

Some companies are giving conveyance re imbursement / allowance as a perquisites and allowing deduction of Rs 19200 in addition to standard deduction of Rs 50000/-.

kindly help me to understand the difference of re imbursement in the question above and conveyance allowance /perquisites subject to deduction of Rs 1600/- per month.
