Tax rebate information if engaging a domestic help


This query is : Resolved 

Quick Summary
A senior citizen with an annual income of approximately 8 lakhs inquired about tax exemptions for employing two domestic helps at a monthly cost of INR 19,000 each. Unfortunately, the response clarifies that there are no deductions available under the Income Tax Act for such expenses. Therefore, this monthly expenditure cannot be used to reduce the net taxable income.

11 June 2023 Dea Sirs,
I am a senior citizen having an annual income of approximately 8 lakhs. My income is pension from LIC annuity schemes, FDs and rented properties. I am engaging two domestic helps at home for my parents and each charges INR 19,000 per month. Can I get any tax exemptions for this monthly expense of Rs. 38,000/- when calculating the net taxable income?

11 June 2023 No. Not eligible for any deduction under IT act.

12 June 2023 Thanks Dhirajlal Sir

12 June 2023 You are welcome.
