Non Compete Fees
This query is : Resolved
28 July 2020
Hello Everyone,
I have a query regarding Non compete fees received by employees. There can be two possibilities for the said income.
(1) Non-Compete fees received by the employee during the tenure of employment itself (for not joining anywhere else after retires or resigns)
(2) Non compete fees received by the employee at the time of retirement
I believe that in the first case amount received is revenue receipt as it is received during the period of employment itself. While in the second case, it is a capital receipt. But I am not sure about this.
Can anyone help to remove this confusion?
Thanks in Advance!

In Both situations, the amount received will be taxable u/h Income from Salary in the hands of the employee.
