Dear Ashok,
they are two separate allowances. conveyance allowance with a limit of Rs 800 per month is covered under section 10(14).
The motor car reference comes under perquisite (Section 17 and Rule 3).
So you need to check under which section are you being paid this money.

for claiming 800 pm transport allowance, no documentation is required. It shall be allowed on presumption.

There is no circumstance and under Income Tax Act the Conveyance Allowance is paid by the employer.
Only Conveyance Allowance is paid every month at the rate of Rs 3000/=per month.
Whether rebate of Rs 800/=per month i.e. Rs 9600/=per year will be available even if Rs 3000/- is paid PER MONTH as CONVEYANCE ALLOWANCE by the EMPLOYER.

Dear Sir,
Even where conveyance allowance is Rs 3,000 per month, you can still claim rs 800 per month exemption under 10(14).
