Quick Summary

This discussion clarifies the tax exemption status of leave encashment for BSNL employees who were previously central government employees. While BSNL may have allowed full exemption in Form 16, the CPC (Central Processing Centre) might not. It's confirmed that employees can revise their Income Tax Return (ITR) to claim full exemption for leave credited during their central government service, even if their current employment is classified as PSU.
