Medical Allowance

This query is : Resolved 

16 July 2010 Hi,

As per my knowledge medical allowance of 1,250/- is given through salary every month & in the yearend we will submit medical bills to get the exemption.

But in my current employer they are stating that auditors have told that medical allowance exemption cannot be given & only if it is mentioned medical reimbursement then it can be given which is not correct pls let me know whether my stand is correct

16 July 2010 Medical reimbursement to the extent of Rs 15000 is exempted.

Fixed medical allowance is allways taxable.

Hence, if an employer pays medical allowance which is a part of salary is always taxable.

16 July 2010 Medical allowance is not specified in the Income tax Act,1961 as an allowance which bears exemption. Hence it is fully taxable in the hands of the employee.
