When filing **Form 24Q (TDS on Salary)** online, here’s how to handle **conveyance allowance and house rent allowance (HRA) under Section 10**:
* **Gross Salary** in Form 24Q should be the **salary before any exemptions or deductions**. * **Exemptions like Conveyance Allowance and HRA (Section 10)** are **not deducted from Gross Salary** while entering in Form 24Q. * You **enter the full gross salary** (including conveyance & HRA) in the “Gross Salary” field. * Exemptions like conveyance allowance and HRA are considered later by the Income Tax Department when processing the returns, so **no need to mention them separately in Form 24Q**.

**Summary:**
| Component | How to enter in 24Q | | --------------------------- | ----------------------------------------------------- | | Gross Salary (Total Income) | Enter full gross salary (including exempt allowances) | | Conveyance Allowance | Do not deduct; no separate entry | | House Rent Allowance (HRA) | Do not deduct; no separate entry |
