30 June 2017 Hello Sir/Madam,
Greetings of the day!
(1) As we know, Uniform allowance is exempt u/s 10(14) of the Income Tax Act, 1961.
An employee is getting Rs.3470/- per month under the head "Uniform Allowance" in his salary slip.
Please let us know how much amount from the above is exempt from income tax?

(2) He is also getting food allowance of Rs.2000/- per month under the head "Food allowance" in his salary slip.
Is this exempt full or partially under the Income Tax Act?

Thanks in advance.


30 June 2017 depending upon the nature of duty, the reasonable amount will be exempt.....

30 June 2017 Are you talking about uniform allowance or food allowance or both?

01 July 2017 food allowance of rs.2000 per month seems to be reasonable.... uniform allowance of r 3417 per month is bit non reasonable
