Can I take tax exemptions by providing clothes bills to Company/Incometax? and if yes, then under which clause of income tax? and upto what limit

Thank you in advance....

02 March 2010 Dear Hiren,

Attire allowance is exempt from tax u/s 10(14)to the extent of actual expenditure or allowance amount whichever is lower.
You acn only take exemption on expenditure incurred on buying or maintenance of uniform for wear during performance of your duties in office.

02 March 2010 Dear Mr.Gupta,

As I mentioned my company doesn't have any uniform.
In this case, do the bills of purchase of clothes can be provided?

02 March 2010 No.you cannot claim exemption the company not having any uniform and giving attire allwance

03 March 2010 NO.
