Would like to know if Leave Travel Allowance and medical reimbursements is subjected to tax in Form 16 due to non-submission of relevant proofs to the employer within the close of the financial year. Can they be claimed as allowable deduction if the assessee has the necessary documents at the time of filing Income tax return?. If yes, then under what head can the deductions be claimed.

You can claim it while filing the income tax return, provided you have the appropriate supportings. Under salary, there is column/cell containing exempt salary.
